Rated 5 starsFinally: A guide that makes sense!
After many books on Italian, French, Spanish, I finally found a learning guide that makes sense. Chapter 1: the alphabet. Chapter 2: key question words (who, what, where, when, why, how, how much). Chapter 3: Odds 'n ends (the words for "the" and "a"). And so on. All words are shown phonetically, as well as how they are spelled in the native German. Tear-out sheets for reviewing on the go. Peel-off stickers to put around...

Rated 5 starsWorked for me - and I'm lazy!
"10 Minutes a Day"? More like 10 minutes a week, for me. I didn't put in the time this book deserves, and still went from no German to passable German in 3 months. I used the book to get ready for a spring break trip, and was able to shop, get directions, and talk to the police. Two people even complimented me on my German!

Rated 5 starsGerman in 10 Minutes a Day
I'm an American English teacher traveling through Europe. I spoke no German before leaving the states and bought this book to learn the basics. It definately helped!

Plus, it contains stickers bearing the names of common household objects. Placing the stickers all around my house was a painless...

Rated 5 starsFantastic - very practical (and fun) language learning tool
I have several of the 10 Minutes a Day language learning titles and think they're all wonderful. Now Bilingual Books also has a "book" called a Language Map. The laminated, condensed travelers' guide (stashed in your purse) gives you the confidence to use your newly acquired language skills, knowing that the phrases you'll need most often are right there, in case you've forgotten any. Truly excellent books.

Rated 5 starsGut Buch
This is a great way to start learning German. It really has all a tourist needs to know for a short trip. The book also is a good springboard into more advanced German-learning books. Plus it is a fun book and can be used by children as well as adults. Highlights are that it gets you right into speaking German without getting hung up on technicalities. It focuses on the most important words, phrases and grammar for a trip...
