As opposed to memorizing French phrases or forcing yourself to get
through another dry French grammar or verb manual, this Dual
Language Reader ("DLR") keeps you eager and excited to turn each
page Short stories in DLR format serve as an excellent tool to aid
you in developing the ability to "think" in French.This compilation
features Carroll's classic masterpiece: "Alice's Adventures in
Wonderland" coupled with the superb French translation by Henri Bu
.Language Formatting (English & French): French: Translation by
Henri Bu English: The story's language of origin.Using this Dual
Language Reader: The key to mastering any foreign language is
developing the ability to "Think" in that language. With the
English text on the left (even pages) and the French translation on
the right (odd pages), you're able to comprehend, precisely, the
ideas being conveyed without turning a page For those students who
wish to test their ability to read the French text, simply fold the
left page back to easily hold & read each page (or the entire
book) in French; if you have difficulty understanding exactly what
the French text is trying to convey, you can quickly look at the
English text to help make the concepts clear and get yourself back
on track. Another useful technique (for beginners, especially) is
to read the English translation first and then, once the concepts
are clear, move on to reading and comprehending the French text.
Your goal, other than enjoying the process of learning, is (again):
to develop the ability to "think" in the new language. A Dual
Language Reader is an excellent tool for helping you to do exactly
that

and inquisitive young girl. In the underground, the most unusual
obstacles appear always to be thrown at her, and with great
insight, she manages to explore ways of overcoming them. It is a
story full of humour, but also of sharp wit. Lewis Carroll's
