The Schofield & Sims Picture Dictionary uses simple word and picture association to develop young children's reading, writing and spelling skills. Colourful illustrations and an infant typeface help children to recognise more than 400 headwords, while an alphabet strip at the top of every double-page spread assists children in locating words and reinforces their knowledge of the alphabet. Additional features include separate lists of verbs, opposites, colours, days of the week, months of the year and numbers to 20, as well as a complete photocopiable list of all the words featured in the dictionary.
