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 punby introducing new French words with jokes, quips, and a few helpings of pure fromage (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 of merci (thanks) in return!
Say "au revoir" to boring lessons and "bonjour" to laugh-out-loud learning
What saying do you get when you cross Obi-Wan Kenobi with a French bear?

What do French people use to scour their belly buttons?
Nom-Brillo pads (un nombril = belly button)
What is green and attends Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry?
Haricot Potter (un haricot = bean)
