Abstract

2nd Edition. Amanda Laugesen and Mark Gwynn. Oxford University Press. ISBN 9780190311940.

Written specifically for Australian school children aged 8–10 years and featuring over 25,000 headwords, the Australian Middle Primary Oxford Dictionaryserves as a working tool in the classroom that accustoms students to the style in which most adult dictionaries are written. At the same time, this dictionary is easy for students to use because it avoids abbreviations and similar conventions.
