This is the new 2013 edition of the very popular first volume in the children’s picture dictionary series. It includes descriptions and now includes 480 signs (up from 300 last edition). It does not require the user to have any ability to read what so ever! Every sign includes a pictorial representation of the object, as well as the English word (to help encourage English literacy) and a description of how to perform the sign (which is most beneficial for teachers and parents). Signs are also represented not in English word order but under categories. Signs will be found under the topics :Animals: Farm Animals, Pets, Birds, Water Animals; Descriptors: Describing Animals (basic), Colours, Shapes; Eat, Drink, Cook: Drinks, Fruit and Vegetables; Around the House: Places in the House, Furniture, Appliances; Places, People and Family: Family, Circus; Activities and Games: At the Park/Playground, Inside Play, Outdoor Activities andGames; Daily Communication: Everyday Signs, Question Signs. The dictionary includes an alphabetical index. The dictionary also includes a pictorial representation of the subcategory, located next to the page number at the base of each page. These cross correlate with the pictorial based content page; making this dictionary easy to navigate for young children, without the need to be able to understand and navigate page numbering!
