Historias de Mexico

This is a small book, but great reading. When the space shuttle was visible from Mexico a friend saw it with great delight and found out that
a young gentleman talked about the rabbit on the moon, which she had never heard of before, so the first story is all about this. Good for those who want to be bi lingual


Great bilingual book

Great book, interesting stories and legends from Mexico. Intermediate level Spanish, or a little above. The short 2-3 page stories are a good introduction to some of the legends of Mexico. I enjoyed having the side-by-side translation; it made it easier to understand the full translation. not just word by word text. Highly recommended.

excellent book

This is a fantastic book for Spanish review and practice. Very easy to check yourself and translate vocabulary because of the accurate English translations. The stories give you cultural insight,as well.






Great reader for the intermediate language learner

I have had trouble finding side-by-side readers appropriate for my level. (I would say I am at an intermediate to advanced-intermediate level) This book is perfect for my level, in fact, the best I have found so far. The stories are normally around three to four pages long and interesting. Another book I would recommend is "First Spanish Reader."


Stories from Mexico : Historias de Mexico

This is an excellent book for a beginning Spanish student or anyone who wants to improve their Spanish reading skills. The "side-by-side" layout with English and Spanish on opposing pages eliminates constantly having to refer to a dictionary to translate unknown words.
