What does it mean when it says this is a 1,000-word-vocabulary book? Is it intended for children???

Boni Aditya It means that you could use this book as a vocabulary builder, i.e. you will discover roughly 1000+ new words, which you might not have heard, or seen…moreIt means that you could use this book as a vocabulary builder, i.e. you will discover roughly 1000+ new words, which you might not have heard, or seen before and you must look them up with a dictionary if you wish to learn. The Level three Indicates that you must be an intermediate level reader to process this book without having to refer a dictionary! i.e. intuitively understand. Of course you can move ahead and skip the word, if you don't wish to learn the meaning! Anyway I use books as vocabulary builders, because our minds are hardwired to remember stuff only with stories i.e. context behind it. So when you think of an apple, you might remember the first time you ate an apple, or the first time your teacher told about Newton under the apple tree story. Thus to remember a word, you need a story behind each word. Who could tell you a better story than a best selling novelist? (less)
