About this title

From the Back Cover:

This book is a total blast!
How can you tell? Because it's a boum (party) in France!

And that's how this cookin' little book makes learning French as fun as a pun--by introducing new French words with jokes, quips, and a few helpings of purefromage (cheese). Language innovator Sue Fenton knows it's a lot easier to remember something when it brings a smile (or even a groan)--so take a break from all those vocabulary flashcards and get a lot ofmerci (thanks) in return!

Say "au revoir" to boring lessons and "bonjour" to laugh-out-loud learning
