Introduction to comparative linguistics

I have used this book extensively to teach French and Spanish. This simple, repetitive narrative is ideal to compare the three languages. Each line appears in a different color to highlight the language used. The poem nests in, and then nests back out again on a summary page. Truly outstanding!
