ABOUT THIS BOOK

USER REVIEWS

Excellent!
~ Written on Aug 29, 2008. out of users found this review helpful.

There's a good reason why two of our finest lyric writers, Stephen Sondheim and Sheldon Harnick, use this fine rhyming dictionary. It's perfect! It is indeed complete and very, very thorough. A great buy for any poet, lyric writer or anyone who enjoys the English language!

One of my favorites

This is a book you will cherish. I had a copy for many years, and then somehow lost it in a move. I'll be buying a new copy now.

I love the fact that in addition to the huge resource of rhymes, this book has a treasure trove of information on poetry.

Great for kids, adults and pretty much everyone! I highly recommend this book!

This book is pretty damn good, and is a great value too. I took the advice of another reviewer and just skipped the directions and dove right in. That's the best way to use this book, poke around and see what it has to offer. There's a pronunciation key at the bottom of each page to remind you of their conventions, and once you get used to how the book is organized it is easy to use. This book is also very complete, even stretching conventions a little. I would add, though, that it should not be your only rhyming dictionary. Use it in conjunction with the Penguin Rhyming Dictionary or some other indexed type to give you the best coverage.
