very good but pick this second
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 19 years ago
I agree with Anil in that I'm not so crazy about the transliterations. The Usborne "First Thousand Words in Hebrew" also has the transliterations but not the english. There, you are expected to figure out that a 'kolnoa' is a movie theater from the picture which not everyone will get. I guess you could look the translation up in the back but that's too advanced for kids. The Steadman/Cirker version also has no English with the picture and even worse there's no color-a big big minus to me! The Artscroll "My Hebrew Picture Dictionary" avoids these problems plus it includes words that are specific to Judaism such as 'Menorah' and 'Shul.' I'd start with the Artscroll dictionary but nevertheless you really can't beat over 1,500 words so this book would be my next choice.
FAMILY FUN

This is a great beginner's book for children and adults alike. We are having a lot of family fun with this one. My 7-year-old and 6-year-old learned how to count to 100 (in Hebrew) in just a few weeks. If you and your family are learning Hebrew, add this book to your collection.
Gorgeous artwork!

This is a very fun dictionary for kids (and adult kids)! The illustrations by Marlene Goodman are colorful and help reinforce learning the words for common nouns. Each entry is illustrated, with the Hebrew word (including vowels), the English word and a phonetic translation. The book is divided by sections ("At the Supermarket," "In the City," etc.) to facilitate learning the vocabulary for a specific topic. It includes an index in phonetic Hebrew and in English. I would definitely recommend it for both children and adults.
