Editorial Review:
This updated edition of a popular self-teaching language-learning book presents the basics of French grammar and vocabulary for those who have little or no prior knowledge of the language. Emphasizing proficiency in informal conversational French, the text includes true-to-life dialogues with translations, as well as skill-building exercises, fun-to-solve puzzles, useful verb conjugation charts, explanations of grammatical terms, and many more language-learning features. In addition to being a self-teaching manual, this very useful book can serve as a textbook or textbook supplement in classroom settings. The many new illustrations in this fourth edition capture much of the spirit of contemporary France.

Rating:  - worth every penny!
French the Easy Way is, in my opinion, a definate buy if you know nothing about French and are just starting out, or if you took it in school, totally forgot it (like me) and want to re-learn it. Basically, it's a work book and grammar book all in one.
I am so glad I bought it. In addition to providing a pretty solid foundation for further study, this book is a breath of fresh air. Many language books are confusing, illogical, ill-organized and just give you a bunch of seemingly meaningless ... Read More
Rating: - Helpful Grammar Book
I just recently bought this book and I really like how it explains the grammar in an easy and clear way. Grammar is something I dread. Things that I had a lot of trouble understanding in other books, were made clear quickly and easily in this book.
Rating:  - Good, But With One Big Flaw
This is a nice book for anyone looking to learn the basics of the French language.

The exercises are fun and engaging but there is still one flaw that is excruciatingly annoying if you are attempting to use this as a self-instruction medium -- the pronunciation guide is essentially non existent. Half a page for covering the complexity of French pronunciation? It's ridiculous that an ... Read More
Rating: - Great book for beginners
This book is great for beginners. It has a lot of interesting dialogue with pictures and exercises. However, if you want more comprensive grammar explanations, you might want to purchase another more grammar-orientated book to go along with this one!
Rating:  - Great Value, Best for Review
For the beginner that knows nothing, this book may not be the best. However, if you already know the basics, or want to use it as a supplementary text, this book is great. It's well worth the money, and has a little bit of everything. It's worth it just for the extra practice.
