What are the differences between an encyclopedia and a dictionary?
Are you a little lost and having trouble distinguishing between an encyclopedia and a dictionary?
Do not panic, you are not the only one in this case, we explain to you.
A dictionary will be used to define the words of the French language.
It will provide you with all the meanings, literal or figurative.
It will tell you whether the word is feminine or masculine, in the case of a common noun, and sometimes even what its synonyms are.
Now let's move on to the encyclopedia, its purpose will be to explain things, not just a word.
It will be much more descriptive and detailed than a dictionary and may even include illustrations.
How to choose an encyclopedia for children?
Do you have children at home or around you and want to offer them an encyclopedia?
It's a great way for them to learn about a variety of topics, provided they choose the right book.
You must first choose a universe.
Indeed, you can find generalist encyclopedias dealing with many different fields, but there are also some that are devoted to a particular theme.
If you choose this second option, check that the subject is indeed of interest to your child.
So think about probing him and asking him what his interests are at the moment to get it right.
Children's passions can change very quickly, so it's easy to go in the wrong direction without meaning to.
Once the theme has been defined,
make sure the level of the encyclopedia is suitable for children.
Some are intended to be read by children, while others are also for adults but remain accessible to younger readers.
Take a good look at what is written on the back cover and do not hesitate to read a few passages to get an overview of the texts.
To be sure to captivate young readers as much as possible, bet on an encyclopedia with illustrations.
They will make the different topics and concepts more concrete for them.
Reading will be much more fun and enjoyable for children.
Finally, take an interest in the publishing house.
There are plenty of them on the market and if you know some of them you will know what to expect.
