Good textbook! July 21, 2008 I have used this textbook for two years with my level 1 students, and I have enjoyed it. The book focuses on communication which has real world application. In addition, there are a lot of teacher resources available that add extra grammar practice.

This is truly a deplorable book. Most of Spanish grammar can be compressed onto a couple of pages - aside from that you only need a list of about a thousand vocabulary words for a first-year course. What then, is the excuse for burdening the poor student with this back-breaking weight and sinful expense? Yes, the pictures are pretty. Yes, the young people depicted are good-looking and ethnically balanced. So what! Learning a language requires CONCENTRATION on the subject matter! These illustrations are merely a DISTRACTION from the material the student is supposed to be studying! The only use served by filling every blank space in the book with COLOUR illustrations is to keep the student from drawing rude pictures of the teacher in the margins! Oh yes, the book is printed in COLOUR, at appreciable extra and useless expense! SHAME!
An okay book May 24, 2006 10 out of 11 found this review helpful
I am a 10th grader taking 1st-year Spanish at a public high school.
Maybe I would like this class more if I had a better teacher. I didn't like this book much though. The activities were good, but I wish it was presented in a less child-like format - all of the big pictures and color, but not much actual text. Also, I wish that we would've gone into more grammar instead of just memorizing words.
