Great Book
I won't write a lot because of the numerous reviews already posted. This was the first book that I have read by Allende. I read the original version in Spanish, which is preferred if you are bilingual since that's the original language (as my Don Quixote professor ...

Great start for children and adult.
I purchased this book for my children so they can learn the language. They are really enjoying it and learning it fast because we have the English version. I think it would be a great start for adults who want to learn Spanish.
