1001 Most Useful Spanish Words (Beginners' Guides)
Seymour Resnick
Dover Publications, 1996
Useful guide, but not flawless
Is this booklet worth the $2 that Amazon currently charges? Most certainly. I wouldn't place an order just to buy it, of course, but you should throw it in with anything else you might be buying.
If you do not speak any Spanish at all, this book will probably have ...

I have been using Mel's original SFG method since my mother first gave me the book over 20 years ago. Bought this updated version as a gift for a friend but snuck a peek at it first. The new method sounds even easier and more productive, so I will be purchasing another ...

Great and informative
We bought this book to accompany the Butterfly Pavilion from amazon.com. This book was a little above her level of understanding, she is only 2 after all. She did get the gist of it. Great illustrations and concise.
