Criticas
The latest edition of the popular Peque o Larousse devotes 1,031 and 712 pages to word and encyclopedic entries, respectively, while also including supplementary sections with accent rules, verb conjugations, proverbs, and maps. Concise definitions offer a range of meanings adequate for general reference purposes. Some entries include etymological information and usage examples. The Spanish is accessible to native speakers and intermediate to advanced students of Spanish. Attractive color illustrations on almost every page will ease the transition for readers making the move from a bilingual to a monolingual dictionary. The encyclopedic section makes this dictionary an optimal choice for both students and general family readership. Recommended for all bookstores and libraries with a Spanish-language reference section. [The updated 2003 edition will be available November 2002; ISBN 970-22-0030-X.
