I am extremely pleased with this book. Well, what may I say, Merriam-Webster rocks!PS The delivery was done on time.

Me parece un diccionario fantástico. Estoy aprendiendo palabras que desconocía en mi propio idioma. Cada objeto se describe hasta el más mínimo detalle. Muy recomendable.

For example: there are several pictures of different kinds of bicycles, but it is further broken down to show you the chain, pedals, derailleurs, crank, etc. It has sections for anatomy of [...]

Organized into categories and detailed illustrations. Weighs at least 2 lbs, I'd say. May not be appropriate for younger children; as illustrations include explicit details of unclothed human bodies. I used this in a school setting with 4th graders, and once the word was out, kids knew what was in this book.
