From the reviews: “This nonfiction book is written for the 3rd to 6th grade reader, but it is so intriguing and full of information that many adults will have a difficult time putting this book down. If one ever had an interest in France, its people, or language, or its cities, or one of many other topic areas, this book will provide you with some interesting information. The author does a marvelous job of intertwining numerous topic areas in a way which holds the readers attention and at the same time is informative. … It is a rather interesting attempt and hopefully a successful one at creating a desire in the reader to learn more French. The author’s use of pictures is a great asset in the presentation of this material. This hardback book with a spiral coil binding is sure to be in demand in any elementary school library. … This five star book is a must buy for any elementary school library.” —Lane Education Service District, 2008 (0764159534) Hardcover w/hidden spiral binding / 64 Pages / 8 x 9 1/4 / 2006 | ||
