Al fin y al cabo
A Follow-up to the "De cabo a rabo" Series
If you've completed the entire De cabo a rabo series, you won't skip a beat. If you've been studying Spanish elsewhere for a few years, you're in for a treat. Either way, you have a solid foundation in the language and are ready for new, advanced challenges, and that's where Al fin y al cabo ("when it was all said and done") comes in. But this time around, as in life, there are no units, there are no limits.
Book 1
Actividades - All your classic favorites from De cabo a rabo like "absurdo o normal," "todo menos," and word scramble are back and better than ever. You'll also find refreshingly new, advanced activities, now that your skills are primed for them, and it won't take long before you add them to your list of greatest hits. Everything you have learned in De cabo a rabo, and more, is in play, so you may want to have Vocabulario and Gramática "al alcance de la mano."
Book 2
Relatos y análisis - New, advanced stories for the advancing reader will put what you've learned in De cabo a rabo and elsewhere to the test. Each "relato" will also introduce new vocabulary and challenge you with comprehension questions, content-analysis questions, grammar-analysis questions, and a related writing prompt.
