Summary: a really EXCELLENT French book - 10 stars
Comment: An excellent book! Much better than Decouverte Et Creation. It actually makes learning French FUN and SIMPLE! I'm taking a college French course and I wish they had assigned this book to us. Not only is it hundreds of dollars cheaper than all the text, workbook, and tapes they tell us to buy, it is 10 times more helpful.
This book will slowly yet effectively build your confidence as you progress from lesson to lesson. It helps you to integrate learned words by actually using them in effective exercises. The lessons flow perfectly. You will learn BY DOING, both in writing and in speaking what you write (or in speaking before you write). It is not at all boring, I promise I never once yawned while I breezed through the first two sections.
Another great thing about the book is its format. Vocabulary words pertinent to the exercise will be on the same page or the next, in addition to the dictionary at the back of the book, so that you don't lose concentration by flipping through pages to find the meaning. Instructions are in English but it doesn't take away from the learning. This is a great self-teaching book.
With it, I recommend a CD-ROM program called "Smart French." It's helped me to understand spoken French and to improve my accent and conversational skills. I'm only a beginning French student but I've never been this interested in learning a language before.

Summary: Great for learning on your own!
Comment: I'm homeschooled, so there is no one really to teach me but the book. I tried SEVERAL different French book and tape combinations, but this is the only one that has worked! I don't even need to listen to the tapes, I can understand French just from the books dialogue and speak it just hte same. Highly recommended for a beginner, and those learning on their own.

Summary: A great selection for grammatical instruction
Comment: The French Now! Level 1 book is a great book to have for grammatical instruction. There are short stories at the beginning of each chapter with each one having a bit of an ironic twist. It helps you to understand those difficult issues like reflexive verbs and passé composé and even the partitive article. 4 stars you ask? Well, like most language acquisition, it is always good to be in a classroom with lots of motivated people just like yourself.
