The Traveling Dictionary is a cute humorous dictionary for traveling enthusiasts by Ella Morton. Due out 14th April 2026 from Hachette on their Workman Publishing imprint, it's 176 pages (print version) and will be available in paperback and ebook formats.
For travel enthusiasts, general dictionary nerds, and the folks who love them. Arranged alphabetically, the entries are exactly as advertized on the cover, from Adventure travel to Zombie. Words are accompanied by cute, tongue-in-cheek line drawings (see cover art).
The writing is clear and engaging, the author has a good sense of humor and ties the realities of adventuring together in an entertaining fashion.
Four stars. This is a short pocket guide, full of fun, and very good at its stated purpose. Worthwhile for spending a couple hours browsing in the library or cafe, and definitely a good choice for gifting to an globetrotting friend/acquaintance.
Disclosure: I received an ARC at no cost from the author/publisher for review purposes
