it is laid out very well. I really like at the bottom of the pages it gives common phrases and other things that the verb is usually used in. for example- freír means to fry at the bottom it also gives some things such as la freidera-frying pan la fritada- fried dish frito/a-fried in my opinion it is easier to use than 501 Spanish Verbs. Also, at the beginning it tells when to use each verb tense, and the conjugations for normal verbs.
Good for introductory Spanish students.

I found this book to be extremely helpful when I was learning Spanish on my own. It has 200 model verbs, and an index of hundreds of additional verbs that are referenced to the appropriate model verb. The format is easier to use than the popular "501 Spanish Verbs" book. And it has more usage examples than that book does. I especially recommend this book for self-learners and students in their first two years of high school or college spanish. I continue to use it as a convenient reference on Spanish verb conjugations.
