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.

We have participated for three years. Rotarians think this is the best Literacy project that we do. To see the children’s faces as they are presented a dictionary is priceless. When they ask, “For me? for my very own?” we are touched by their gratitude!
