Pura vida: Beginning Spanish
By Norma López-Burton, Laura Marqués Pascual, and Cristina Pardo Ballester
In Pura vida, Spanish is more than vocabulary and grammar, and Spanish-speaking cultures are more than products and practices. Pura vida is the discovery of the Spanish-speaking world through the eyes of real people that students can relate to and who share their anecdotes and real-life experiences. With Pura vida, students make deeper, more meaningful connections between language and culture and acquire Spanish with an unparalleled sense of personal engagement.
