How French Short Stories for Beginners works:

• The summaries follow a synopsis in French and in English of what you just read, both to review the lesson and for you to see if you understood what the tale was about.
• At the end of those summaries, you’ll be provided with a list of the most relevant vocabulary involved in the lesson, as well as slang and sayings that you may not have understood at first glance!
• Finally, you’ll be provided with a set of tricky questions in French, providing you with the chance to prove that you learned something in the story. Don’t worry if you don’t know the answer to any - we will provide them immediately after, but no cheating!

Oui...

Truly helpful and entertaining. Learning French through this book is not only helpful for improving pronunciation, but also for retention of lessons taught. Most people cannot handle lessons that span a long time and these stories are catchy and easy to remember. Very good concept.

This audiobook was offered to me for free, and I have left this review in return.

Helps you become more proficient!

It really can be difficult to make the leap from basic French language programs into more realistic scenarios....and personally, I found conversations to be the most challenging to understand. What I found really helpful about these short stories is that it uses fairly natural dialog to expand your vocabulary and comprehension. English translations are provided...including in written format, I found it best if you stick to just the audio. These stories are the next best thing to experiencing French immersion...you are forced to listen carefully and attempt to understand what's going on before you listen to the English translation. Overall, I think this audiobook is a great way to improve your French skills.

Great for Learners

I'm not sure exactly what I expected, but I enjoyed trying to follow along. I have very little experience with French and am actively trying to learn, so there were a lot of new material to learn as I listened. The narration is very clear and the pace makes it a lot easier to keep up and even pick up new words through context. The vocabulary and summary of the stories made it a lot more fun to go back and re-listen to stories I had a harder time following.

Excellent practice tool.

The short stories in this book are not only interesting, but are great for practicing common French words. To master any language, continuous practice via speaking and understanding vocabulary is key. This is what this book offers, and the conversational pace of the narration helps even more. Also, the inclusive Pdf file allows the listener to look up things that they may have confused. This ensures complete understanding of each lesson and gradual improvement as the listener completes the book.


I received a free copy of this book in exchange for a review. While this is so, my review is based solely on my opinion and is in no way biased.

Great set of stories for learning

By this point, I have listened to a few of the different offerings from LingoMastery in mostly French an in Spanish. As with other books of theirs I have reviewed, I believe in the method. They only work for you if YOU do.

To that end, you’ll need to develop a study schedule. There are suggestions at the beginning of the book of how to do exactly that. Take the time to read the PDF text alone; read and listen to the audio together; listen alone; adjust playback to different speeds if needed (and if your audio player can do that). If you follow the steps, you will learn. Guaranteed.

So that stated, what makes this learning tool special? The stories themselves show many slices of life from small children through retirees. They are short enough to review more than once. They are also quite suited to the beginner/advanced beginner. While listening to some of them, I was able to understand some of the texts on audio alone. I’ve been flirting with French a long time, but I wouldn’t call myself a true intermediate yet.

As for the narrator’s performance, she is better in this one at delivering different character voices and inflections to the narrative passages. They feel like quite interesting stories now.

I recommend this to beginner students learning French who are looking for an affordable and easy to use tool. Lower intermediate learners could also use this with ease. It is an audio, but you’ll get the best value by using the audio track that is available in your Audible library.
