Rating:  - flashcards would be better
I would rather have these in a flashcard format, so that English and Spanish words were written on the back of the card. There needs to be more cards, also, to cover more topics in the book.

The cards are divided between picture cards (a picture of a tomato, for example) and cards with the English words for those pictures.
