A thesaurus built for young writers

With more than 500 alphabetical headwords and 2,500 synonyms, this revised reference pairs word choices with practical guidance on using them. Entries identify each word’s part of speech and provide a definition and example sentence; the synonyms also come with definitions and examples. That structure makes the book useful not only for exploring alternatives, but for seeing how word meanings and grammatical use fit into a sentence. Its focus is on the writing needs of beginners.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Young writers building vocabulary and looking for alternatives to familiar words
  • Children who benefit from definitions and example sentences when learning word usage
  • Parents or educators seeking a reference for writing activities

For this revised thesaurus, more than 500 alphabetical headword entries and 2,500 synonyms have been specifically designed to best help beginning writers. Each headword has been carefully selected and includes the part of speech, definition, and example sentence. Synonyms following each headword are also defined and followed by a sample sentence. These sentences help the reader see how the word is normally used, and also illustrate the grammatical constructions that they are often used in.
