It's the grouping of the ideas on the page that makes it so comprehensible. Not only do the "lessons" logically progress, each one also stands on its own as a useful learning experience. This confirms the author's claim that each page is a lesson unto itself.” • “At first I thought it might be juvenile and a bit too easy....well it was easy,....and it worked! I was remembering without really trying!” • “This way of learning is highly intuitive so that you feel like you are making progress almost effortlessly.” • “It's a great book for slowly building to a conversational understanding of the language.” • “I HIGHLY RECOMMEND this book as a prerequisite to any high school or college course.” • “This is a ‘must have’ book. Yes, you may quickly outgrow it, but you will find yourself referring to it often as you continue your studies.” • “I have many books I use that are much more detailed than this one but I love this book! ” • “Even though it looks like a kids’ book, it helps you to learn the words and phrases much more easier.” • “It’s definitely from the 60's, kinda old fashioned, very insignificant looking and super inexpensive BUT it is a total gem and I’m so glad I bought it.” • “I've worked through this paperback a handful of times and still gladly refer to and use it.” • “In a nutshell, while it might look simple and insignificant...don’t let appearances fool you...this book totally rocks.” -------- Below are links to descriptions of each of the See It and Say It series of foreign language instruction books:
