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.

As I have said throughout the years, Ms. French’s idea to do The Dictionary Project is brilliant, simple, and so beneficial for children. I am most grateful to be a part of this project for all these years.
