"Great way to learn to read a new language."
"Great for learning the language."
"useful, good reading practice material."
"Excellent reference for learning the verbs in Portuguese."
"The listing information and the book's title page show the book as “Volume 1." Because of the books' differences in their titles and the lack of any clarification in the listing information for the books, it appeared that Volume 1 would be a book of short stories and that Volume 2 would be a book of conversation."
"it was not what i was expecting."
"The methodology is very simple - by applying a little effort to learn the first verb tense, the next new tense to learn is easier to remember and undestand. If she'd bothered to read the title, introduction or flip through the preview pages, she would have noted that the story is being taken through a day in the life of the protagonist."

Best Children's ESL Books

The Giving Tree
And don't miss Runny Babbit Returns , the new book from Shel Silverstein! In Shel Silverstein's popular tale of few words and simple line drawings, a tree starts out as a leafy playground, shade provider, and apple bearer for a rambunctious little boy. At this point in the story, the double-page spread shows a pathetic solitary stump, poignantly cut down to the heart the boy once carved into the tree as a child that said "M.E. When there's nothing left of her, the boy returns again as an old man, needing a quiet place to sit and rest. (All ages) --Karin Snelson “If you’re looking for a children’s book that teaches generosity or unselfishness, most people will point you right to The Giving Tree , Shel Silverstein’s lovely story of a tree that will do anything for the boy it loves—and for good reason.
Reviews
"All that I can honestly say about this book, what some people say is "controversial" is it ; touches on feelings. teaches about selfishness. teaches about selflessness. teaches about caring. teaches about giving. this book really tugs at all the emotions everyone goes through one time or another. It has turned into a discussion book for all my grandkids. The book is a hardback & comes with a cover resembling the cover of the book."
"One of my favorite books with a great lesson for children on giving/taking and appreciation."
"Must have for all children."
"Best childhood book ever - adults should re-read every year as well."
"Great story for my 6 year old who reads voraciously.."
"Just like I remebered!"
"One of my favorite books ever."
"Every child should hear and read the story of The Giving Tree as a tool for understanding the goodness and usefulness of nature and all of life’s gifts."
