With colorful, eye-catching illustrations to stimulate imagination and curiosity, My First Croatian Dictionary is specially designed for children ages 5 to 12. It contains more than 1,000 everyday words (from colors, animals, household items, foods and more)--each illustrated and translated into Croatian.

The illustrations are arranged alphabetically by English so even young readers can easily search for words, and each one is labeled with clear, bold type.

Recent studies suggest that children should begin learning a foreign language before age 10 for best results. This dictionary is a fun, engaging way for parents or grandparents to introduce Croatian to young children. Teachers will also find the dictionary useful for students who are learning Croatian or English from Kindergarten and up.

Croatian is a Slavic language spoken mainly in Croatia, Bosnia and Herzegovina, the Serbian province of Vojvodina, and in various neighboring countries by about 5.5 million people. Croatian is written with the Latin alphabet.
