Language is Music is music for the mind! Susanna Zaraysky has crammed this little book with big ideas about how to learn a language, including a multitude of extremely practical tips and applications. As one who has dabbled in many languages and speaks a couple fluently, I highly recommend it for anyone who wants to speak another language.

I love it! I think it will help people who want to learn, and those who are curious about additional language learning. Many people want to learn a language but are frightened, or disappointed by the courses they have taken. Reading Language is Music will encourage them to try again, on their own and with friendly supporters.

Back in France, I spent many years learning academic English in school. But I progressed much faster when I forced myself to listen to the BBC or not look at the subtitles when watching an American movie. I wish I had Susannas book with me then. Its full of creative ideas and practical tips that are indispensable complements to the traditional methods of learning foreign languages and its coming from someone you can trust, she speaks so many of them!

- Philippe Levy, French native speaker

This book is great. It showed me a new approach to learning a language. I will put the book to good use. As a foreign English speaker, I spent many years at school learning English and did not make much progress. I learned a lot of the tips that I read in this book with time. However if I had read this book earlier, it would have made my life much easier and I would have saved so much time. I am going to apply the tips in Language is Music into learning a third language: Spanish. This time, I am sure I will make huge progress much faster. Not only is Language is Music useful in acquiring a foreign language, but the resources and websites in the book are valuable for someone who wants to travel abroad.

- Fabien Hsu, French native speaker

Language Is Music is a unique tool for language learners. The great amount of insights are matched only by the thorough list of on-line and off-line language learning resources. From the first page, you can feel Susannas joyful and refreshing attitude to the world. She is having a lot of fun dealing with the Tower of Babel and she makes it possible for her readership to have fun too. Her travel experiences and love for languages are the paradigm of how anyone can become a citizen of the world.
