Rated by buyers 4 out of 5 stars - Quick Reference of French Grammar
I find this book to similar to French Grammar (Barron's Grammar Series). Both books provide a quick reference to French grammatical concepts. But this book doesn't list the parts of grammar as logically as French Grammar (Barron's Grammar Series). Also, this book wouldn't be beneficial to you if you don't already understand English grammar.

Here is a list of what's in this book:

Introduction
Suggestions for Vocabulary Building
Written Accents
Word Order
How to Form Questions
Nouns/Articles
Adjectives
Adverbs
Verbs
Demonstrative Adjectives and Pronouns
Comparisons of Adjectives and Adverbs
The Relative Pronouns "qui" and "que"
Negative Expressions
Idiomatic Verbs
Telling Time
Some Useful Expressions

Rated by buyers 4 out of 5 stars - Not bad
I like it. It's thin and easy enough to take with you for starters. It's good for reviewing grammar points, gives plenty of examples but it lacked. It was very brief on the subjunctive which is used quite often in french. Other than that, it's a good book to have.



Rated by buyers 5 out of 5 stars - Perfect for its size!
The publishers have stuffed a great deal of information into these tiny, paperback books. They're great to have on-the-go, as they are not bulky or heavy at all, but contain all the general (and sometimes specific) information that you will need at that time. I also bought these books for other languages.



Rated by buyers 5 out of 5 stars - Just want to mention that...
for starters this book is great and adequate enough.

But several important components of french grammar are missing from this book. Thus if you are somewhere around intermediate level, go buy a more advanced french grammar reference book. This skimmed version is for starters who have no previous knowledge of french, and want to have a general grasp of the language. Otherwise you are going to waste your money.



Rated by buyers 4 out of 5 stars - Good buy!
I think this book is very helpful and a very nice source if you do not have much time to study French with classes etc... It is very small and its advantage is that you can easily locate what you are looking for and especially since it provides you with the literal meaning of what you are saying but in English. This latter part has been really helpful for me since I can compare the English grammar with the French one. For example, a book might tell you what how to use the direct object... but if you are not even sure what a direct object is in your own language the whole explanation may not make much sense. I would definitely advise buying it.
