I bought this book just before moving to France 7 years ago. It's amusing & the ilustrations are great!

A very useful and interesting book - you can't put it down! - By: , 10 May 2004
You are drawn to this book initially because of its appealing cover illustration. On delving deeper inside the pages you'll find some fantastic proverbs used by the French & their English equivalent. Not only is it essential reading for any French language student, but for the non-French speaker it also gives an insight into the way that a different language develops. Fun pictures accompany each proverb & also an contextual example of how each phrase is used.
Above all it's a fun book to browse through, which will be really useful for anyone studying the language.
