    Excellent resource

    This is the second time I've ordered this book. My daughter "borrowed" my first one and can't get along without it at college. I have never found a better resource for looking up how to conjugate a particular verb. I am a Spanish teacher.

    Dictionary of 501 Spanish Verbs fully conjugated in all the tenses

    This was a really great reference book when I needed assistance on conjugating a word, I may have forgotten. However, there are newer words that are not in the book but that is okay because of the familiar patterns from other words used prior to that.

    Great handbook for easy reference!

    This is a very convenient book to have for easy reference to the conjugations of verbs in Spanish. It doesn't do anything more, but it also doesn't do anything less. I love it!
