I like this sort of book to reinforce an introduction to Spanish using a program like SongSchool or Whistlefritz. As your student sees the words they have heard elsewhere, it cements that image and gives you another opportunity to pronounce the words. Phonetic guidance helps the non-Spanish-speaking parent! This one has particularly good phonetic help. You see the Spanish word, an image, the phonetic pronunciation, and the word in English. We are not sentence building yet, this is groundwork for that to come later! Words are grouped in a logical way: school, family, zoo animals, at home, etc. A helpful glossary in the back serves as a quick reference. This is not consumable and may not be copied. ~Sara
