We have been giving dictionaries to third graders in New London Schools for several years, maybe 6 or 7. The kids and teachers love them. The books are a great value. They contain not only definitions but a lot of other very good information for students.
Jean Meehan, Prospect Grange # 144, Prospect, CT

We have participated for many years and plan to continue. It is so worthwhile.
Tom Boone, Cowlitz Prairie Grange # 737, Chehalis, WA
I & the Grange think this is a great project that helps the students learn their words for class & also this is the 1st book that some of these students have ever owned for themselves.
