First Spanish Reader: A Beginner's Dual-Language Book (Beginners' Guides) (English and Spanish Edition) Review

I am still reading this little dual language book. I find it not only fun and entertaining, but also educational because besides learning the language you also learn about the local culture and peculiar language expressions or "old sayings" or proverbs.
The compendium of short stories is great because if you are short on time you can just read a couple of stories as opposed to read a long novel and then after you put it down you have to remember where you left it off when you resume your reading...
The small size is great too so you can enjoy it anywhere.
Do not expect however a literal translation. Sometimes I still need to look at the dictionary for the meaning of a specific word in sentences that were translated for their overall meaning, however it does not happen too often.
I think it is a good buy and certainly worthy the small price.
