Very Enjoyable Fun Way to Learn French!!

It was an enjoyable experience listening to this audiobook! Learning was exciting and entertaining since language lessons were interwoven with tales of French fairies. The activities were designed for beginners, and the grammar guidelines ensured that learning the language was simple, even if Charles Perrault's stories vividly expressed French culture. Discovering French language and folklore through each story is an exciting new journey. Ideally suited for anyone seeking an engaging approach to learning French

Creative, immersive and fun way to learn French!

What a fun way to learn French! I wanted to brush up on my French and this looked interesting and it was! Classic stories told in French first, then you get a section of the key words in the story translated to English, making this a very immersive experience. Also enjoyed the way the exercises tested my understanding.

I recommend it.

Perfect Refresher for My Old French Skills

I studied French back in school years ago and wanted to brush up on what I learned. This book has been a fantastic way to dive back into the language! The short stories are not only fun to read but also a great way to reinforce vocabulary and grammar that I had almost forgotten. The targeted exercises after each story really helped me practice and remember those tricky verbs and phrases. It’s been a pleasure to rediscover the language in such an engaging way. If you’re like me and want to refresh your French skills without feeling overwhelmed, this book is a great pick. It’s been both nostalgic and educational, making it a perfect addition to my language-learning journey.

much better than vocabulary flash cards

I will never want to learn language another way again. Learning through stories supplies an amazing level of emersion that I found really enjoyable. I'm no French expert yet, but I have so much more confidence now and am excited to continue working on my fiber points. The narration is great, and doesn't go too fast or too slow. Cool listen.
