Bonne Route!

Bonne route!, a longtime favourite of students and instructors, is now in a new, updated, and refreshed edition.The only four-colour Canadian text for introductory French, Bonne route! provides a clear grounding in the language and introduces francophone cultures worldwide, with an international emphasis on Canada and North America as well as Europe, the West Indies, and Africa. Culture is introduced through a story line that presents realistic characters and situations as well as authentic documents. Lively dialogues and letters bring the story, the culture, and the language to life. This new edition maintains the spiralled approach to language teaching but introduces more opportunities for student practice. The audio program is now available on a CD for students. An interactive presentation on the student CD presents a tour of la francophonie while reinforcing structures from the text. A new website www.bonneroute.nelson.com also introduces students to francophone culture on the web. Bonne route! responds to the frequently expressed need for a text that balances communicative proficiency with grammatical accuracy. This complete learning package, with a fresh new design, will continue to engage both students and instructors.
