Customer Reviews

Nice book with bright pictures
The book was delivered in time. By the way, the First Thousand Words in Russian is excellent book for children with bright pictures. Also good for adults who study Russian as foreign language.

Not Just for Children!
This book is not just for children, it is a great book for any adult learner as well. The pictures are clear and delightful and you soon find yourself picking up everyday words in Russian. Excellent addition to any language learning and great for building up your vocabulary.

Russian Vocab for Kids of All Ages
One of a series of similar Foreign Language vocabularies, the Russian version would be a worthy addition to the study materials of a Russian Student of any age, looking to build basic and solid vocabulary. Numbers, colours, characteristics, clothing, parts of the body and everyday objects around the house, garden or street are just some of the words in the book.

Each item is labelled in Russian (with an English tranliteration) and whilst the odd one is a little difficult to determine what it is from the picture, there is a complete alphabetised Russian-English index.

There are a very small number of typographical errors, but nothing to deny a big 5 STARS for the surprisingly excellent book!
