Very good primer to get one started in reading Hebrew. This made it easy for me to former the sounds of words and letters I saw while in Israel a couple weeks back. My only complaint is that it lacks English phonetic transliterations in the text (I keep having to refer to the back flap).

Not my favorite. For my taste it leans WAY too much on English words spelled out in Hebrew letters. I also found reading line after line of untranslated Hebrew words very frustrating. But it was good for additional practice with letter recognition; you can never have too much of that, so 3 stars for "liked it".

A fantastic introduction to the Hebrew alphabet. It is a great place to start.

Perfect for English people!
Va bene, non è che per gli Italiani sia un brutto libro, anzi!
Molti concetti sullo sheva che non si capivano sulle grammatiche li ho trovati in questa sede alquanto cristallini! È un ottimo libro per imparare l'alfabeto ebraico, però bisogna stare attenti ad alcuni esempi che, in quanto riportati in lingua inglese, potrebbero trarre in inganno uno studente italiano.
Per il resto, libro perfetto e molto utile! -ci sono anche gli esercizi!- :)
