English Through Pictures Book II adapts the instructional design as in Book I of the series, employing all together about 750 highly useful words at work in the essential sentence patterns of the language. A pictorial commentary explains the sentences as they appear, arranged in a double-page display of sentences in situations to invite comparison with one another. Learners quickly get a sense of the new language when they can repeat the sentences after an informant while they look at the depictions.

For study of the written language, a workbook of exercises, graded step by step to the teaching sequence, has been provided to challenge and reinforce the learning of all lexical and structural elements while providing enrichment reading and writing within the learner’s reach.
