Let's Learn German Picture Dictionary is ideal for children beginning to learn German. The book is a delightful, educationally sound picture book of more than 1,500 words children learn in beginning... This description may be from another edition of this product.
This is a book for children. It discussed child's things. That said, those basic words are words that I need and can use as well. I have had a lot of success learning German using Rosetta Stone's TOTALe product, which runs in total immersion and based on photos and pictures. And so I went searching around looking for German English Bilingual Visual Dictionary (DK Visual Dictionaries) and when I found this I bought this one, too -- and it is a joy to look through and read. I can't wait for the vocab to catch up with me on Rosetta Stone so I bought this one in the hope that I could learn some of the words that I might well use every day were I to know the words. And, I don't really like books of vocab -- I like associating images with German meaning, not English words. So, I bought this book and love the book and love to share the book, too, because it is fun to bring folks into my current hobby: learning German.
Good for all ages!

I bought this book on a lark for my (then) 1-year old since we decided to teach her my mother's native language. Now at 16-months, she really enjoys looking at the illustrations. It is cleverly designed with individual images along the page edges and one large picture incorporating all the smaller ones. They're thoughtfully done by "scenes": in the classroom, at the airport, in the grocery store, etc. Excellent resource for anyone but especially the younger set!

WE moved to Germany and knew nothing about the language. My five year old (and his parents) have learned a great deal of vocabulary from this book. My son and his German friend use it to help each other out. We, the parents, use it because of it's user-friendly pronunciation key and quick alphabetical guide in the back!
Super cute!
