The Everything Learning Brazilian Portuguese Book: Speak, Write, and Understand Basic Portuguese in No Time (Everything: Language and Literature)
$19.95
Good book. You will learn the basics in portuguese. That being said, it's a very slow method: you will have to reach page 58 to learn "to be" (present tense) in portuguese. Moreover, each lesson begin with a very basic grammar explanation (what is a noun?, what is an article?). I find it a bit condescending (the author could have assumed that her readers went to elementary school).
The CD is very helpful. I would not buy the book without it.

Portuguese (Brazilian), Conversational: Learn to Speak and Understand Brazilian Portuguese with Pimsleur Language Programs (Simon & Schuster's Pimsleur)
$49.95
Someone recommended Pimsleur brand to me, and I am very impressed with the Brazilian Portuguese conversational I CDs. I am on 10 out of 16 lessons, and I feel like I'm really speaking Portuguese! Each lesson is 30 mins long, so I can listen to it on my commute to work and it doesn't take any extra time out of my day. The price was a steal for what I'm getting out of it. I wish there was a Conversational II so I could continue my lessons!
