Words You Should Know In High School: 1000 Essential Words To Build Vocabulary, Improve Standardized Test Scores, And Write Successful Papers

This book is excellent. My son was diagnosed with a TBI last year and we are using this for word games to help rebuild his vocabulary and Cognitive abilities.

A great book, very user friendly. The definition is very precise, and the examples too. This book works like a mini dictionary. But what makes this book so great is that, a definition is not just presented like so many other word books or lists, but is told in a more user friendly tone, that helps the reader to gain a more insight into how the words should be preceived and used in certain situations. A great asset to anyone that wants a better understanding at the use of the words.

A friend of mine from Morocco seemed sad that his English skills weren't quite good enough.I tried to bolster his self-esteem. "After all, you speak fluent French and Arabic. And your English is a bonus."I gave him this book so he could dig a little bit deeper into the English language. Then he showed it to his two teen-age daughters. He says the whole family loves the book.That's good enough for me. I gave the book 4 stars.

Suggested by teacher for a high school class. He said you would be surprised how many words kids these days still don't know. Fast ship.

A great product and great service!

I use this product for teaching English in the high school classroom. Excellent product, service, customer satisfaction.

I bought this book for my 12-year-old son as some "bridge" learning for summer vacation. The "high school" part of the title intrigued him from the start. He enjoys the succinct definitions and relevant, humorous examples of useage. Over the summer he has picked up nearly 200 words and is eager to continue.

I gave this book to a new High School Freshman. The student began using it immediately. She told me she loves incorporating new words into her school work. As for me, I am to old to recall if I knew most of these words by the time I was thirteen,fourteen. What I do know is that I enjoy reference books, my thesaurus and the exceptional 12" hardbound dictionary that my father gave me to this day!

my daughter does not know these words :)
