The present paper reports on a Greek lexicographic project that introduces dictionary use in early primary school curriculum providing children with a useful workbook during their first literacy steps. What follows is a brief account of the factors taken into consideration and the decisions made in order to adjust the dictionary to its user preferences, to map linguistic information on effective illustration and to raise pedagogical interest, reducing the metalinguistic difficulties that a dictionary can convey.
