The new edition of this popular classroom supplement hones students’ English language skills with 40 updated lessons that include:
  • Word lists and definitions
  • Pronunciation notes
  • Fascinating facts about word origins and usage
  • Exercises, games, and puzzles to facilitate vocabulary building

Can't go wrong with this book according to my daughter's English teacher. She's about to take the SAT/ACT and it seems like a lot of these words are on her practice tests.

2.0 out of 5 stars Change the title to "601 Words You Need to Know to Do Crossword Puzzles" and it would be fine.

The book has some good words, but to me, it doesn't live up to its title. e.g. vasectomy, torero (a bullfighter on foot), pettifogger, peonage.
