As a bilingual of Arabic and English this is a well illustrated book with good foundational vocabulary. Note: Some English transliterations may cause non native speakers to pronounce some words incorrectly but these are only a few.

Useful, but has questionable transliteration
This is a nice easy book if you’re a beginning student of Arabic or if you’re introducing an English speaking student to Arabic. The only real criticism is that the transliteration of the words to English doesn’t do justice to Arabic letters. For example, this book transliterates the Arabic word for cat as “kett”. lowercase “k” does not represent the letter Qaf. The double lower case “tt” for Taa is also confusing. If the pupil knows some Arabic, these transliterations won’t cause a problem, but they might confuse beginning learners.
