.French is Fun with Serge, the Cheeky Monkey! (Salut Serge)
City Travel Guides > Books > By Language
by: Sue Finnie

January 31, 2006
This is a wonderful language pack with everything you need to help beginning children learn French. The animation is engaging and captures the children's attention. They are learning without even realising it, thinking they are just watching a DVD. Not only do you get the wonderful Serge DVD, you also get an Audio CD, songsheets, game cards and an Activity Book.

I can't recommend this highly enough. If I could give it more stars I would!

.Elan: Grammar Workbook Pt.1
City Travel Guides > Books > By Language
by: Marian Jones, Gill Maynard

September 20, 2001
this book explores the topics of study for AQA french A-level - it is a great aid to the final exams which I am currently sitting and has proved to be an immense grammar and vocabularly aid to me and to my peers who have also used this book for study. I would highly recommend Elan 2 to anyone studying A-level french, if you aren't I wouldn't bother as it would probably be no good. If you do buy it, enjoy... and good luck in your exams

.Easy Spanish Crossword Puzzles (Dover Little Activity Books)
City Travel Guides > Books > By Language
by: Stanley Appelbaum, Nina Barbaresi

March 28, 2003
This is a little book of 25 Spanish crossword puzzles. Maybe puzzle isn't quite the right word here as each puzzle only consists of around six words! Still, it's only easy if you know all the words. You're likely to pick up some useful vocabulary even if you are an intermediate student as I could only manage to finish two puzzles unaided out of the 25. There's a list of the 150 Spanish words used at the back of the book and the solutions. I used to do a puzzle each day and found it sort of amusing. If you get bored with the puzzles, then you can always colour in the pictorial clues. Plus it's dirt cheap. Recommended.

.Buongiorno Italia!: Language Pack: Audio CD Pack (Buongiorno Italia)
City Travel Guides > Books > By Language
by: Joseph Cremona

Being a beginner in Italian I have bought other books which are difficult to get in to. However this book is excellent and the cassettes which accompany them are fantastic. They give you the chance to repeat what is said in dialogues and are very good.

.German for Beginners with audio cd (Languages for Beginners S.) (Languages for Beginners)
City Travel Guides > Books > By Language
by: Angela Wilkes, John Shackell

August 31, 2001
I bought this book after I read its reviews but I must say I am very disappointed. The book's pages are more like those found in children's books, big pictures at full colours and little text. The CD is not easy to follow, as it does not mentions what page is referring to. Overall, this book is very superficial and it doesn't really go anywhere regarding German grammar and pronunciation.

.Practice Makes Perfect: Italian Pronouns and Prepositions: Practice Makes Perfect
City Travel Guides > Books > By Language
by: Daniela Gobetti

May 01, 2006
Written in a sloppy and thoughtless style. E.g. On page 5 the learner is introduced to two sentences: 'Seals love to play' and 'Bats are mammals.'
This is redolent of the infamous nineteenth-century travellers' guide which offered 'My postillion has been struck by lightning' as a useful phrase to memorise.
It is also full of careless mistakes e.g. on page 8 we are taught that 'a sinistra' means 'on the right.'
Pulp it!
