The colour coded verb table allows the reader to focus all of their attention on one colour tense at a time enabling them to make immediate connections between the subject and the verb! The French LearnBots are a great resource for dyslexic learners, children and adult learners. Children can start to identify what a verb is and the way it changes with the subject of the sentence. Advanced learners can go on to learn the different tenses and improve their accuracy. This book also works along-side its very own kick-starter app on Googles Android and Apples App Store allowing the user the ability to hear some of the conjugations being read out loud by a native speaker. The app also allows the user to test their ability in remembering verbs and conjugations.

Book review for LearnBots by Dr. Josep-Lluis Gonzalez Medina (Eton College England) After a number of years in which educational trends favoured oral fluency over grammatical accuracy, it is encouraging to see a book which goes back to basics and makes learning verbs less daunting and even easy. At the end of the day, verb patterns are fundamental in order to gain linguistic precision and sophistication, and thus should not be regarded as a chore but as necessary elements to achieve competence in any given language. The colour coding in this book makes for quick identification of tenses and the running stories provided by the pictures are an ideal mnemonic device in that they help students visualize each verb. I would heartily recommend this fun verb book for use with pupils in the early stages of learning and for later on in their school careers. It can be used for teaching but also, perhaps more importantly, as a tool for independent study. This is a praiseworthy attempt to make verbs more easily accessible to every schoolboy and girl in the country.
