Review 29 April 2009
By Joe
Format:Paperback
I found this book helpful in building vocabulary. The quality of the drawings is excellent and the colourful pages make a nice change to the usual b&w language books.

Please note that this book is based on Portuguese from Portugal, so a small number of words are different to those used in Brazil.

Aimed at children but I consider it to be an excellent book for adults when used in addition to the usual dictionaries, grammar and phrase books. The drawings are simple and bold, many are humourous. Smile at the chaos in the kitchen and the antics in the garden. The same pictures are used with their other language books - with changed vocabulary. Link to the internet to hear pronunciation.

European Portuguese 23 April 2009
Format:Hardcover
I spent a lot of time looking for Brazilian Portuguese childrens books online and managed to find some, however I couldn't determine which Portuguese was featured in this book, on receiving the book the first thing I noticed on the back cover is that it features European Portuguese. Although a lot of words are similar I need to translate the different ones - a small problem since I am learning the language too. Nonetheless my 18 mth old loves this book, its fantastically colourful and really well laid out. He hands it to me everyday to look at the different pictures which are extensive, I'd recommend this book but would love if they came out with a Brazilian Portuguese version. The online pronunciation guide is definitely European Portuguese.

Good resource
A lovely resource which I have bought as a different modern foreign language example for school. Would really love to see a Brazilian Portuguese version as well!
