Rire et Apprendre Un recueil de textes humoristiques pour avancer en français is a short piece written in humorous French with a clear intention to mix learning with pleasure. The book exploits the common world of human experience to present stories that share common socio-cultural vision and comic interest. The book should be useful to intermediate students of French who are seeking to advance their knowledge of the language even as they enjoy the comedy-laden dressing of each story. The pedagogical interest of the book is buttressed by the provision of associated questions at the end of each story and a glossary at the end of the book
