SOME NICE THINGS that nice PEOPLE HAVE SAID ABOUT US ‘The emphasis on evidence gathering and informed theories is very valuable and well explained, and is introduced subtly enough that it doesn’t impair the flow of leisure reading. The innovative and attractive presentation holds attention and feels fresh in this wholly engaging read.’

EST-CE QUE JE PEUX ALLER AUX TOILETTES? I remember in French lessons having to ask in French to use the toilet or take off my jumper. I also remember it slowly dawning on me that the song we sang in the library as young kids, Frère Jacques, actually meant something and wasn’t just a string of random French-sounding words. People often talk about how learning a foreign language can broaden your horizons, increase job prospects, make you better at maths... All things that young children are very concerned about, right!? But what I found, as a language graduate, was that learning a foreign language and living in a foreign country helped me better understand myself, my own language and my own culture. It’s also a very fun and sociable thing to do. There is a lot of value in learning foreign languages, beyond the practical, and I hope that we can keep ourselves open to these languages in the face of current political movements. We’ve been publishing language learning books for nearly 30 years here at b small and this autumn I’ve focussed almost completely on launching a new range of language learning books called HELLO LANGUAGES. We’re so passionate about this that I’m taking over the activity and non-fiction catalogue to talk about it. So turn to page 6 and 7, then get in touch and ask for our language learning catalogue.
