A Non-Native Speaker's Guide Jennifer Hakes

Grab your appetite and dive into the world of traditional Italian cuisine! This Italian/English children's book contains cultural icons like pizza and lasagna, but also more regional culinary favorites from Rome, Sicily, Friuli-Venezia, Lombardy and more! This book is written with the non-native speaker in mind, who has knowledge of basic Italian pronunciation. Most Italian/English pre-school books on the market have simple vocabulary words and are great for vocabulary acquisition. However, Italian language learners often lack the understanding of how to use the words in sentences or conversation. Interactive conversation is the key to language comprehension and utility. The A Non-Native Speaker's Guide series offers readers the ability to speak grammatically correct comments or questions and includes responses that your child can repeat after you.
