About this title

Review:

This book was a perfect refresher to my Spanish language skills!  It provided great real world short stories and guided me through the conversation.  It was easy to follow along and complete the quizzes at the end.  I also like being able to hear a native speaker to better tune my abilities - J Parwell

As a pre-medicine student, Spanish is extremely helpful and useful to have on my resume. It is not required in college, but I possess some knowledge from high school. I desired the ability to brush up on my skills, and refresh my memory of the language, so I sought out an audiobook in order to be able to hear the words being spoken. I came across this audiobook and absolutely loved the presentation and the content - Madison Baker
