As an IB French teacher, I was "super contente" to find this workbook. It has all the elements required for the writing section of the IB exam since it includes both formal and informal French writing styles. It also includes current texting abbreviations. Merci Eliane Kurbegov.
Timothy Egan does it again. The Big Burn is a non-fiction book that reads like a novel. The characters in both Washingtons (DC and the state) are extremely vivid. It also taught me somethings about the history of the US and the Pacific Northwest.
My children and I have enjoyed all the audio versions of the Artemis Fowl series, but #7 has made my 10 year old daughter and myself laugh out loud almost non-stop, or sit on the edge of our seats. It is amazing how Eoin Colfer can come up so many clever twists on the adventures of the young genius and the Lower Earth population - fairies, centaurs. Nathaniel Parker reading (interpreting) the stories truly brings the characters to life. It probably goes without saying that you should start with the first book, but they're all fun to listen to.
I read this book a5 or 6 years ago and it has stayed with me all these years. I love the characters, especially the main one - Pi. I have told all my friends and family that they absolutely have to, simply must read this book.
