This review is from: Carlos Drummond de Andrade-Quarenta Historinhas (e Cinco Poemas) (Paperback)
I tutor Portuguese at a university level. The director of Portuguese decided to use this book for fifth semester Portuguese and I don't think it was a good idea.

The book is good for someone interested in some personal study, but I do not believe it should be used in a classroom setting.
