I have been giving your dictionaries to my students for the last several years as Christmas presents. For many of my students, this will be the only dictionary in the home and even perhaps the only academic book they own.

We have given dictionaries for three years. Although we have different students each year, they seem to be more excited each year; news travels even at that age. Scholarships and high grades are given to high achievers, my hopes are to reach someone on the other side of the scale.
