Summary: too basic, but then again, not...
Review: Although it seems to be a book for absolute beginners, it really is not. It helps to have at least some working knowledge of the Alef-bet before embarking on this book, plus there was no phonetic pronunciation guide.

Summary: great fun!
Review: I bought this together with the Hebrew Picture Dictionary by Marlene Goodman.
However I rate this better than the above book. reasons:1) great fun! Straight from the post office, I went to [the store] and bought a cheap watercolor paint set. I am an adult but this was fun - mixing colors, painting and learning the hebrew word. 2) unlike what other reviewers say, the fact that there is no pronounciation guide is its strength. When the hebrew word is transliterated, one tends to remember the english word and forget the hebrew word. This way, you are forced to focus only on the hebrew word. 3) it costs one-third of the price

Summary: Most Logical Learning-Hebrew-by-Association Book!
Review: If you need to increase your practical, working Hebrew vocabulary in a hurry, this book is your logical tool. Even after I have finished studying each day's page, my memory continues associating each picture with its Hebrew name right on top of it. Throughout the day, I can easily recall each Hebrew word on its item learned that morning, plus those of previous mornings' study. This is much faster assimilation than just memorizing lists of vocabulary words. Am grateful to own and use this simple, effective tool, but, will give it only four stars due to a serious handicap: it lacks both syllable breaks and accent marks. Nevertheless, it remains a worthy investment, far above its modest price.
