Not at all helpful
My niece wants to learn German so I thought I would buy her this book. I speak fluent German and I thought it would be helpful, and a cute way to learn. This is a cute book with cute pictures. It is not helpful for learning German, however. There does not seem to be a pronunciation guide.
Each page has about 15 words alphabetically with the word in English, the word in German, a sentence in German, the picture, and the sentence in English. If you didn't know German already, you could not learn it from this book because you wouldn't be able to read the sentence (or the word, for that matter), nor would your pronunciation be good. BTW it is alphabetized in English. It has a couple of pages with the numbers (1,2,3...) written out in German, the days of the week, etc. But it's just not helpful. Plus, I think that for anyone old enough to read English OR German by themselves, the pictures are too babyish.
