I think that this dictionary is good because it’s not your normal dictionary. In this dictionary, you look up words in the book and it gives you the definition, synonyms, antonyms, etc. and it helps with vocabulary. I would recommend this book to someone who likes or wants to improve their vocabulary words so that they can score higher. I really think this book will help you with vocabulary words.
