Items related to Language Learners: Sophie Learns Spanish
Synopsis
Boys and girls in early grades receive a fun-filled, informal introduction to Spanish in this picture book, supplemented with an interactive CD–ROM. Kids go along with Sophie and her friends as she visits Spain. Vivid full-page illustrations show scenes of Sophie arriving at the airport, being driven to the home where she will stay as a guest, enjoying lunch in the kitchen, then playing at a beach, visiting a farm, exploring a town and its shops, going to a party, and finally returning to the airport for her flight home. All illustrations are filled with objects that kids will immediately recognize, each object labeled to identify it in Spanish. Each two-page spread also features a lift-the-flap phrasebook, in which the words are spelled out phonetically. The accompanying CD–ROM is filled with spoken examples of Spanish to familiarize kids with its sound, plus fun-to-play language-learning games. (Ages 7–10)

From School Library Journal
Grade 1-3-Sophie goes to Mexico to spend time with her aunt, uncle, and cousins. As she visits her relatives' house, the beach, a ranch, an open-air market, and even a soccer stadium, all the requisite vocabulary is presented on busy, bright, digitized spreads, in fold-out "phrasebooks," and on the CD. The phrasebooks, which list all the vocabulary introduced on each spread, are written in small type and are difficult to read. The CD, however, is well composed-by far the best learning option presented. The book's visuals make a natural transition to the computer screen, and hearing the words pronounced in a clear, idiomatic Spanish is invaluable. Similar in format to a number of other pictorial or interactive Spanish-English dictionaries such as the Larousse Picture Dictionary: English-Spanish/espanol-ingles (Houghton, 2002), this title is an additional purchase for most collections.
