Enjoying a talking book is just as fulfilling as reading a traditional paper and ink book. Our audiobook range includes titles for kids, teenagers and adults.
Print vs. Digital
Despite living in the digital age, we still find something special about print media. The local bookstore is predominantly selling books. There are popular sites for book lovers on the internet who enjoy millions of visitors every day. Sure, print media doesn't sell nearly as much as two decades ago, but that's not because people have stopped reading. In fact, people are reading now more than ever, especially if you consider the way audio and digital books are selling and the kind of profit they're making worldwide.
All Books Available
But still, there's something comforting and familiar about that tangible feeling of holding a book in your hands and turning the pages. eBay offers a wide range of titles. You can place your bids on both rare, out-of-print editions or new hot off the presses titles. eBay can help you find affordable books on any subject that interest you; from student textbooks on marketing, photography, to biographies on your favourite artists or movie stars.
The Cycle Knowledge
Print media offers incredible resources of knowledge to everyone. Books are meant to be passed on from person to person and eBay as a platform does facilitate this process. When people are finished with a book, they can sell it on eBay and pass it onto a new owner.
Comics On eBay
Search eBay for comics by your favourite comic book artists and writers. If the vast world of comics puzzles you, no worries - check what's happening at the latest Comic-Con event. Comic-con might well be the best guide to vintage cult comics, as well as hot new comics franchises.
Goodreads helps you keep track of books you want to read.

I suppose through habit and school, this is my dictionary of first resort - I do own four others including the Shorter Oxford. It is accessible, sensible in its definitions and in the main authoritative.

A bit of a disjointed and wordy story about an Aardvark who goes through many, many random adventures as he searches for a xylophone that he can take to his friend the zebra at a zoo.

Sep 16, 2016Lynda rated it it was amazing · review of another edition Shelves: part-read, reference
Mine copy didn't have the CD with it, but in every other way this is the edition I have.
I use this one most, and like the clear, concise, meanings in plain English.
But I also have the Shorter Oxford dictionary as well if I wish to look deeper for shades of meaning, perhaps in older texts where the meaning may have changed over time. That version does have a CD-Rom, which is brilliant too, especially as it provides pronunciation. It is here I go browsing words
And yes I have another as well, but...more

My son gave me this dictionary for Christmas to replace the awful one we have been using the past nine or ten years. Word origins and phrases are included, which is exactly what I wanted. Recently I looked up the word 'plashy' as it was used in a poem, and while the old dictionary did not contain this word, the new Oxford dictionary did. Additionally, the Oxford dictionary has interesting appendices such as Prime Ministers and Presidents. Out with the old dictionary and in with the new!

Always near me and always teaching me. Best book ever.
Sep 09, 2007Jenny rated it it was amazing · review of another editionRecommends it for: People who hate the weird pronunciation symbols in most dictionaries
The best part about the Oxford is that it shows the pronunciation phonetically, instead of using those stupid symbols, the name of which has escaped me since undergrad English.
