As a visual learner, i received a copy of this book as a gift when i was a child and i still have it and simply love it. Now that we have children of our own, it's been a favorite with our toddler and preschooler for the past few years and they absorb it all and keep coming back to it with fascinated delight and curiousity. Now that I've discovered the newest version (a hardcopy now, thank goodness!) I've sent a copy to several friends and family for their young kiddos too. It's soo much better than the DK illustrated dictionaries today and gorgeously done.

Lo recomiendo mucho porque sus dibujos son de gran calidad y viene en 5 idiomas: español, inglés, francés, italiano y alemán. Es bastante detallado y contribuye a enlazar el aprendizaje de estos 5 idiomas con sus hermosos esquemas.
