french success at only £4.50 - By: Mr. A. Williamson, 16 Mar 2008 
This book has really helped mein my study of french & makes revision much easier. Grammar points are explained simply, & this is what lets you make up your own sentences & get the top marks. the revision questions at the end of each section reinforce what you have learned & let you know what you need to go back over. all this at a reasonable price, definately worth the money.
CGP GCSE French - By: , 24 Jan 2004 
I think that this book is helpful for the very basic uses such as low level vocab & sentences. However, it doesn't explain the grammar to the more complex sentences, so it is very difficult to use the informationin your own work. However, it is brightly coloured with pretty pictures to sustain your interest for a bit longer. I find this is just to cover up for the lack of information given.
The only real use I found for this book was if you were writing about a very specific topic, it could help to give a few sentences that could be included. Also some of the topics can be useful for preperation for oral exams, such as lost property.
Overall, I do not think that this book is worth buying, becuase although it is cheap there are better quality revision guides around, especially if you are aiming for the higher grades.
An averagely helpful book - By: maureen323@hotmail.com, 07 Apr 2002 
Although this book was helpfulin the learning & understanding of many phrases, I felt that to really help one revise GCSE it needed to give the student more space to make up their own sentances & to show how things were constructed more, rather that just dishing out phrases without the key points explained.
Great book! - By: , 13 Aug 2001 
i thought this book was brilliant! it covers various topics e.g. shopping, transport, clothes etc. the book consists of 10 chapters- this may seem like a lot but the chapters are really short(except chapter 10). i've finished using this book & i can say that french has never been easier! there was one thing about this book that really annoyed me & that was the amount of vocabulary you have to learn. but it was well worth the hassle as most of the words i'd learnt came upin the exam. i would recommend this book to anyone- be assured that you'll gain something out of revising from this book.
Looking to pass French? - By: , 03 May 2001 
This book is a must if you want to pass French for GSCE's. In the beginning there was tenses & that was easy & clear to understand with good examples. This included tenses like past, perfect, imperfect, future & pluperfect tense, which really helps to get marksin the French exams. The rest of the books is split up into sections like sport, transport etc. which also helpsin oral exams. The whole book is clear to read & understand & this book really helps to revise & takein the information. Sadly the language & graphics are really quite patronizing for age range it is targeted at. However it spells out the clear facts & that's what countsin the end.
