Rush Hour French

I was looking for a quick, easy way to brush up my French or at least tune up my ear for a trip we're taking soon.  This CD set helped me do all that and sing like I was on Broadway, too!   I just popped the 3 CDs into my car's CD player and belted out the songs along with the enthusiastic singers.  I practiced my vocabulary for numbers, the alphabet,  making friends, ordering in a restaurant and going out dancing!  The male and female voices are great, melodic and clear and the music is catchy and feels like it's being played by a Broadway show band.  Other drivers may think I'm yelling at them, but I'm really just improving my mind, n'est-ce pas?
