Well-Designed French Language Short Stories

I was totally happy with this audiobook of French language short stories. It was at a level that I could understand and learn from. The speakers spoke slowly and enunciated clearly. This audiobook was a big help for me in my journey to learning to communicate in the French language.

Great stories in French

I loved the narration, the stories, as well as the vocabulary list. Interesting stories and they were perfect for my level of French. I am intermediate in French. Great for supplementing my French studies at school.
