ReviewsThe real value of the book will be to language teachers who will find it an enjoyable and stimulating source of material for discussion and language work. The notes and lists provided not only take much of the grind away from preparation but also make the cartoons themselves accessible to less advanced language learners. Indeed, a major attraction of the volume for the teacher is that it offers, in written form, examples of French as it is really spoken whilst the visual component of the cartoon precludes the need for lengthy contextual explanations. As such the material might be profitably exploited by language assistants in oral work with first and second year undergraduates.
