Not only does this little book have every phrase you need, they are put together in the easiest and most useful way. The table of contents page shows them according to your need, e.g., Shopping, Greeting (very important in France), Getting about (renting a car or buying a train ticket), and each category has a little picture which makes it faster to recognize what you need rather than a list of contents. Also below each phrase is a very good phonetic pronunciation guide. But best of all, in my opinion, is you can download an app to your phone, punch in the page number with your phrase and you can hear a French speaker saying the phrase. You need this little book, or the one for German, or Italian, or wherever you are going to travel!
