Now anyone can learn to speak Spanish quickly and painlessly. With this new series, children and adults, too, can begin speaking Spanish immediately and without the annoyance of tiresome grammar lessons, tedious lists of verb conjugations, and monotonous drills. These three all-new, fully illustrated 48-page books (each with a complete answer key) assume no prior knowledge of Spanish. Students learn common patterns and begin substituting other words as they gradually enlarge their Spanish vocabularies. By the end of Book 3, students are ready to say to Spanish speaking people: "¡Vamos a hablar espanol!" Students meet Philip Johnson, his wife Margaret, his son Michael, his daughter Ann, and even the pet dog and cat. They spend the day with the Johnson's-for example, waking up, eating breakfast, playing some games; more.
