Sorry, the answer might already have been provided, I haven't been watching the list very well, but I wanted to suggest the Oxford Picture Dictionary. I use it in my low and intermediate level ESL classes as well as with one-on-one tutoring because it is organized by subject matter instead of alphabetically and it lends itself nicely to lessons. A teachers manual, audio tape, and workbooks are also available. It comes in monolingual as well as a variety of other languages. I usually order it through New Readers Press but I know that it is also available through other catalogs as well. wendt@axp.winnefox.org Amanda Wendt, Program Assistant Winnebago County Literacy Council Oshkosh, WI 54901
