You may have all the vocabulary down pat and every grammar point nailedbut without the skill of knowing how to put these elements together, communicating in your second language
would be nearly impossible. Practice Makes Perfect: Italian Sentence Builders picks up from where other

make solid sentences. And like every Practice Makes Perfect title, these books feature crystal-clear
explanations, numerous realistic examples, and dozens of opportunities to practice, practice, practice!
