Cambridge Bilingual Books...are ideal bilingual texts for my high school Italian class. Texts are not side by side, which encourages students to focus on the Italian text rather than just 'checking up' on the English translation. My students enjoy the quiz questions and I find that they are a great way to strengthen oral skills.
Maria Viviana Robeck, Edinburgh High School, Maryland
All Cambridge Bilingual Books are devised by a highly experienced team of University of Cambridge educated linguists. Each text is carefully constructed to maximise learning potential and reader experience. Each bilingual book includes a detailed bilingual dictionary and a quiz activity.
