Rating: Summary: The Poet/Song-Writer Bible! Review: Most people can come up with several words that rhyme with any given other word. This book gives you the words you thought of, plus ALL THE OTHERS! Not only does this rhyming dictionary list all of the rhyming sounds and sylables imaginable, but there are phonetic rules (rhyme and reason!) stated, which make the entire matter completely logical. -- This publication is a fantastic tool for song writers. I've used this book for years, it has a prominent eye-level place on my shelf. Highly recommended!

Rating: Summary: Unless your Ogden Nash, this book is worth the cash. Review: Ogden never needed a book to help him rhyme. But we mortals can use some help occasionally. This is more than just a dictionary; it explains several elements to poetry. They call it the Poet's Craft Book. This is not the only book and I am not about to compare, as this is a five star book in its own right. It is well organized and easy to follow.If you are a pseudo poet then alas, one day this book may cover your (look it up)
Rating: Summary: The Best of The Best Review: The pros may not agree but as a novice lyricist, having never written a song in my life until I began work on my current project, I found this book to be the best of the bunch. I own four others. This one is the most used. The others? Well, they just sit on the shelf collecting dust.
Rating: Summary: A Very Useful Tool For Any Writer Review: This dictionary is an incredible tool for any writer. Whenever you need just that right rhyming solution in a piece you are writing, this will help you. A dictionary of this sort is a bold undertaking for anyone to compile, and my hat is off to the man who put this reference together. I have looked at other attempts at this concept, but I have found this to be the most useful of all. I do not think there is a better reference on the market in this catagory. This should be an absolute must for anyone in the writing profession to have in their reference library.

Rating: Summary: Much easier to use than others. Review: This rhyming dictionary is arranged by sound, not by spelling. You look up your sound (using standard diacritical markings) and aren't stuck flipping back and forth from one spelling to another to find the one the writer has decided to use.
Rating: Summary: Great for poets! Review: Using this book helped me with writing poetry. I was able to learn new meanings and definitions by opening up and finding words. Write poems, stories, songs, etc. This is a fun dictionary to have!
