A dictionary teaches a child how to approach a problem and use critical thinking skills by sounding out the word and finding it in the dictionary. This simple task gives them a feeling of self-confidence and satisfaction that they cannot get online.

I have been participating for four years and as the Chairperson for the last three have doubled the number of schools to which we give books. It is a gratifying event, the children are very responsive and send us wonderful thank you letters. This is a wonderful and exciting project that should be available in every school in the nation.
