'The texts and pictures are interesting and motivating and the drama extracts are fun to act. The activities are varied and useful, and the students liked doing them. (We could not try the listening parts as I did not have the cassette.) It is a book, in short, which offers enriching, enjoyable and valuable activities.' Susan Bhaumik, SATEFL Newsletter Vol 19 No 3
