Description:

This is the most accessible resource for finding the perfect rhyme. Other rhyming dictionaries often use obscure words for padding, subsections for disyllabic and trisyllabic rhymes, and reverse phonetic order. This resource avoids such complications and, as a result, is the most practical rhyming book available. Clearly presented, it groups the most satisfactory rhymes--40,000 in all--taking both stress and vowel assonance into account. An index helps readers jump straight to the word they are looking for, and eye-catching panels offer examples of rhyme in action.
