Learn Polish with new series from trusted publisher of foreign language study guides, Hippocrene Books! With colorful, eye-catching illustrations to stimulate imagination and curiosity, My First Polish Dictionary is specially designed for children ages 5 to 12. It contains more than 1,000 everyday words (from colors, animals, household items, foods and more)--each illustrated and translated into Polish with accompanying phonetic pronunciation. The illustrations are arranged alphabetically by English word so even young readers can easily search for words. Each one is labeled with clear, bold type and the commonsense pronunciation makes it easy to begin speaking Polish right away! Recent studies suggest that children should begin learning a foreign language before age 10 for best results. This dictionary is a fun, engaging way for parents or grandparents to introduce Polish to their young children and grandchildren. Teachers will also find the dictionary useful for introducing Polish words, or for Polish-speaking ESL students (K-6).
