2.0 out of 5 stars Dissapointed Italian speaking parent, April 15, 2002

This review is from: Italian Picture Dictionary (Berlitz Kids) (Hardcover)

This book was very dissapointing. The English phrases and illustrations are very creative. However, the translation into Italian is very poor. It is full of errors that one might not notice if he or she did not already speak Italian well. The idea of the book is a great one. It is really too bad that the translation is of such poor quality. I hope Berlitz publishes a second corrected edition.

3.0 out of 5 stars Basic, but not brilliant, December 21, 2009

This review is from: Italian Picture Dictionary (Berlitz Kids) (Hardcover)

I was really hoping for more from a Berlitz publication. I like the idea, but some of the translations are not correct. There are lots of words that I would have expected in a children's book that are absent. I much prefer LET'S LEARN ITALIAN PICTURE DICTIONARY MCGRAW HILL. That is sorted by subject matter and so much easier to absorb.
