My Very First Little Spanish Book(TM) (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798190712797)

Hola! Start your child's Spanish journey tonight - one warm little page at a time.

My Very First Little Spanish Book(TM) is a gentle, beautifully illustrated first reader that lets parents and children learn Spanish together - even if you've never spoken a word of it. Under every line, the Pierce Pronunciation System(TM) re-spells each word the way it actually sounds. No phonetic symbols. No guesswork. If you can read this sentence, you can read Spanish aloud tonight.

Every single line of the book appears four ways - the Spanish text, a friendly say-it line for English speakers, the English translation, and a say-it line for the other direction - so the book teaches in both directions at once.

How it works: Veo la luna. BEH-oh lah LOO-nah. I see the moon.

Spanish is wonderfully phonetic, which makes it a great first second-language - and the say-it line turns every rolled r and sunny vowel into something you can read instantly.

Inside this book:

• 25 short, warmly illustrated lessons - grandma's stories, the farm, breakfast, the moon, bedtime
• The Pierce Pronunciation System(TM) - a two-way design: English speakers learn Spanish, and Spanish speakers can learn English from the very same pages
• A friendly Spanish Sound Key that teaches the language's special sounds in minutes
• A Bridge of Words - a map page celebrating the shared history between our two languages
• Say It Out Loud! - an expressive read-aloud page (whisper it, boom it, sing it!)
• How Many Can You Say? - a gentle graded quiz where your child discovers their own level, from Little Sprout to Little Linguist
• A soothing bilingual bedtime close: Good night. You are loved.

Perfect for: ages 2-7 - bilingual and multicultural families - heritage speakers - homeschool - gifts for curious little minds - bedtime reading that quietly becomes a superpower
