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

Mastering my French and loving it!

I haven't practiced my French since high school (so many years ago!). I was on a tour in Quebec recently and it inspired me to improve my skills in this beautiful language. When this book came along, I was thrilled! It was actually relatively easy to listen to and understand as the narration is fantastic. I look forward to diving into the exercises and it seems like mastering my French is going to be my new fun hobby!

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.

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.

Great refresher for me!

I took French in college, and was only 3 credits away from a Minor, so I have prior experience with the language but it has been 20 years and I needed a good refresher prior to my first trip to Europe! I've thoroughly enjoyed diving into this audiobook, which offers a brilliant blend of French fairy tales and language lessons. It really brought back the flavor of the language for me. The charming stories, including classics like Cinderella and Jack and the Beanstalk, are interwoven with practical exercises that make learning French both fun and effective. As someone looking to refresh my French, I found the exercises particularly helpful in reinforcing vocabulary, grammar, and punctuation. The engaging narration and beginner-friendly format made it easy to follow along, and the added cultural insights enriched my learning experience. This book is perfect for anyone wanting to enhance their French skills in an enjoyable and immersive way. Highly recommended!
