First Thousand Words in Spanish

I purchased this in "good" condition and it came with 6 pages ripped out. I'd classify that as poor.

I think this is a good book for learning Spanish it gives pictures of people places and things and then goes through and itemizes each Item in English and Spanish. New Orleans come with flash cards and stickers so you can constantly remind yourself what specific things are in your house in the language you are trying to acquire.

The book is a fantastic and fun book to read. It will help others who are learning Spanish and it helps me too. Spanish is one of my most favorite languages. My favorite pages are 44-45. Two other of my favorite pages are 36-37. This book is a interesting and easy way to learn Spanish. I love it! Johnny, age 10.

I purchased this book for my three year old. She loves the pictures and we play find-it type games with them (ala - Waldo). The only real downfall is that while the Spanish words for many of the items in the picture are around the edges of each page, no pronunciation is included. I'm sure that's no big deal for parents who already speak Spanish, but unfortunately, I cannot read the words to my daughter since I don't know the Spanish rules for pronunciation. Sure, you can go to the internet and after typing in the page number and going through several clicks, hear a single sound clip of the word. That doesn't help me at bedtime, though. I would love to see a phonetic pronunciation under each word. Then, we'd be set!

Tired of boring and bland spanish tools? This book is bursting with vivid, whimsical, illustrations depicting everyday life with humor and clarity that will attract even beginning adult students. The apealing story type pictures not only define spanish words, but they also promote spanish interaction between reader and child or student with student. On "la cocina" page, a father washes dises amidst a swirling pandemonium of dropping dishes, spilt juice, and a todler with a pot on his head. A teacher or parent could easily springboard off of this illustration to begin to form whole sentences based on the action in the picture. This intriguing book is sure to be a winner with you and children alike.
