Really helpful, but...

These stories are a great way to memorize vocab, because you don't have to memorize vocab. Once you understand the story, the context brings the memory of each word's meaning immediately back. It's like going on a field trip to view French words in their natural habitat!

My only complaint is that the vocab recaps after each story suffered from a few mixing errors. They matched the French clips with the wrong English clips sometimes. if you get the PDF and read along, this won't bother you at all though.

Absolutely Amazing! Pain-Free Learning!

When you get this audiobook, you get the important French vocabulary in front of you after every paragraph of dialogue.

It’s perfect for learning French because it removes the work of you having to constantly look up what the words mean in a dictionary. Yes, the stories might not be lively; but, the content and learning goals you make as you use this material daily is spectacular.

I often listen to a dialogue and read along. I progress until I can listen without having to read along.

You can do as many chapters you like per day, and always return to previous chapters.
