I am taking Italian for the first time and have used this book alot to supplement our classwork - we have to write sentences on a topic and this book is broken out into topics - clothing, on a farm, in a hospital.... Great dictionary in the back and fun for my kids to look at, too!
Great for all ages

I ordered this book and an audio cd program. The cd program was for a much younger child, but he was able to go through the dictionary and learn some words on his own while I look for another age appropriate audio program.
great way fun way to expose your children to Italian.

Our kids love this book! The pictures in this book grabbed their attention. It's a fun way to put the English words to Italian words. And if you don't know how to say a word, you can look in the Glossary and it will tell you how to say it.
