Cool! is a three-level course for young learners (age 6-9), offering an integrated class book/activity book in one volume. Features include: a wealth of dialogue sketches featuring two zany kids, Speedy and Flash, with their family and friends, which children will enjoy acting out; a humorous cartoon strip, Betty and Bronto, based on a prehistoric world of cave people and dinosaurs; a fascinating insight into the lives of children in Britain through the photo scrapbook of Katy, a real eight-year-old. Regular support and assessment activities play a key role in allowing teachers to reinforce children's learning and monitor their success. A clear and concise Teacher's Book guides teachers through the course with the support of a cassette, flashcards, and wordcards.

This is a topic-based four-level primary course with an emphasis on developing reading and writing skills.
