Answer:

The book's Glossary

Step-by-step explanation:

A thesaurus is for synonyms and while this might help him understand a little better it doesn't give the definition.

An online encyclopedia is for general information like history things and medicine and not for definitions

A dictionary had too many options and can be hard to navigate.

So the quickest and most helpful for the book would be the book's glossary.

Answer:

Probably the books glossary, because sometimes words can have different meanings due to the way they are used, so the books glossary would tell you exactly how the word is meant to mean in that specific book.
