2.0 out of 5 stars This book is useless, February 23, 2005
This review is from: The Wordless Travel Book: Point at These Pictures to Communicate with Anyone (Paperback)
I bought both this and Point It by Dieter Graf. Point it is a MUCH better book, Wordless .. borders on the childish and is really not a serious attempt to overcome language barriers. I found Point It much more helpful. It is well designed and covers a wide variety of items and occasions and is a much better buy.

1.0 out of 5 stars Very Cartoon-y; expected more, December 31, 2004
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: The Wordless Travel Book: Point at These Pictures to Communicate with Anyone (Paperback)
I returned this book even though it was so cheap to start with that I lost money doing so, but I was just very disappointed. Drawings were cartoon-like and poor quality. I don't speak any language other than English, and I think I could communicate better without this book (actually looks more like a cheap pocket calendar)in a foreign country.

5.0 out of 5 stars Wonderful!!!!!!, February 5, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: The Wordless Travel Book: Point at These Pictures to Communicate with Anyone (Paperback)
This book is great. My sister is going overseas this summer and speaks only English. With this book I am much more confident that she will make it home in one piece! :) They thought of everything, even down to pale or dark beer. I would definitely not leave the country without it even if I had a grasp of the language where I was going.
