Author Description

The ACE Spelling Dictionary is a powerful tool for developing spelling skills in all pupils from 6 years upwards. It includes more than 20,000 words, yet allows a user to find a particular spelling within a few seconds. The unique index takes away the frustration of hunting around in a conventional dictionary. All words that sound alike but have different meanings are starred, and their meanings are given. The ACE dictionary is a rich resource for word study and for painlessly improving word recognition and written English. First published in 1986, the ACE Spelling Dictionary has been regularly updated and average feedback from home and school users has been close to 5-star.
