5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent visual tool for learning English!, September 17, 2011

Joe (Brooklyn, NY) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Open Sesame Picture Dictionary (Open Sesame English as a Second Language Series) (Paperback)

This book is a really nice way for younger kids to learn English visually because it's filled with illustrations, featuring all the favorite Sesame Street residents, of course! It covers all the basics like the alphabet, numbers, colors, opposites, animals, verbs, and illustrates room by room all the things in the house. I would highly recommend this book for a young new U.S. resident.

Other teachers and I love this book! It has helped many students transition from Spanish to English with friendly characters that they love. I would recommend this to anyone helping a student find the words to express their knowledge!
