Summary: Valette-Valette. The best in language learning
Review: I have to say this is the most practical guide to learning any language. I used this textbook throughout my entire high school career and found it extremely valuable. It was so good that I enrolled in the Spanish course throughout high school and earned top marks in both languages. Not only have I retained most of the information I learned (it's now going on 15 years)but I have also been successful and communication with most people in both French and Spanish. I wish that Valette-Valette had made other language courses using their set-up. I highly recommend them to amyone interested in learning in a language. If they make a text for learning Icelandic, I will be willing to pay top dollar. I am now hunting for copies of both the French and Spanish courses as I plan to teach both lanugages using these texts. Merci! and Gracias!

Summary: A superb book for French beginners
Review: This book tells you everything you need to know: how to pronounce, grammar, vocabulary, etc. It begins with the very basics and builds up slowly but after a while you will find that you are talking quite fluently after a couple of weeks!
