Seeking Unusual French/English English/French Dictionary

While visiting a bookstore, I recently saw a dictionary in which French nouns were listed with the appropriate article. For example, maison was listed under M as la maison, instead of the usual practice of listing the noun followed by m or f.

Unfortunately, I didn't have time to buy it and when I returned later, the dictionary was gone. I don't know the name of it, so the bookstore can't order it for me, and they didn't recognize it from the few details I was able to give.

Needle in a haystack stuff, I know, but has anyone else seen a dictionary where the nouns are listed with their articles?

I'd appreciate any help.

For those who might be interested, I found the dictionary I saw earlier. It's the Collins Gage Canadian Intermediate French Dictionary.

It uses Canadian French definitions, so it may not be useful to everyone. What I like most about it is the way the nouns are listed, as I mentioned above.

If anyone knows of a dictionary with the same feature for France French, I'd appreciate a heads up.

Is it a big dictionnary for adults ?

In French I already have seen a dictionnary with the articles, but it was a dictionnary for children so with light definitions.
