Mosaicos by Carmen Garcia, Carmen Torres Garcia, Elizabeth Guzman, Matilde Olivella De Castells, Paloma Lapuerta (2005, Hardcover)

THIS BOOK IS REALLY HARD TO FOLLOW. UNLESS YOU COMBINE IT WITH THE ONLINE TUTOR YOU MIGHT GET LOST. IF YOU ALREADY KNOW SOME SPANISH YOU SHOULD BE FINE. BUT FOR BEGGINERS IT CAN BE A LITTLE FRUSTRATING. IT TRIES TO COMPILE SPANISH FROM ALL COUNTRIES AND IT CONFUSES YOU A LITTLE WITH THE CORRECT WAY TO SPEAK IT. ONLINE COMPLEMENT IS HELPFUL IN LISTENING TO THE PRONAUCIATION.

I was disappointed that this book had so many pages that were written on with ink. The description never mentioned that this would be an issue.

never recieved the book i order from this seller on ebay-poor customer service- i have filed a claim with paypal and have not heard anything after 14 days ??

I purchased the book for my mom for a class. It has been helpful to her in many ways to study for Spanish.

I like this book because i am learning basic word for spanish. I highly recommend this book if you are a non-speaking spanish person.

Shipping was ver slow. I brought the Mosaicos Spanish textbook on a Wednesday and I got it two weeks later. The textbook was in good condition but the answer key was not included. She did reply to all my emails, and shipping was just to long.

This book is designed for first time learners of the Spanish language. Also good as a review for those that have already learned some spanish or have taken courses. This book was the required text for a class I took at the University of Houston. They use it for two semesters and teach the first and the second half respectively. As well, it is easy to understand if reading it on your own without a class. Definitions in the back of the book include spanish to english as well as english to spanish. Most irregular verbs are also conjugated in the back of the book.

I wish that the book would have been sent with the online access insert because I had to buy it off the internet for $60 when I thought I was all set after buying the book.

This was exactly what I needed for class-with the exception of a bookkey for an online program that goes along with the book. Overall though, I saved money and got what I needed!
