The Richmond Picture Dictionary is an ideal dictionary for children in their first year of learning Englis The Richmond Picture Dictionary has been designed for young learners to use independently at home or in the classroom during their first years of studying English. The dictionary is intended to help learners establish an immediate association between vocabulary and a visual image, thereby reducing dependence upon translation. It offers students the opportunity to increase and enrich their English vocabulary first through association with the illustrations in the picture section, then with clear English-only explanations in the alphabetical dictionary section.
