Classic French Tales
Fairy tales have been used for centuries to build up children’s vocabulary and teach French verb tenses, pronouns, linking words…
Here is my own lively rendition of these eight very famous French tales. I tell them here using relatively simple French, in a very lively way, the same way I told them to my young daughter, the same way my mother told them to me. Each tale comes with a French transcript and English translation.
Fairy Tales are a fun and enticing way to practice French for children and adults alike!

I loved listening to this! Camille tells these stories beautifully and I liked her voice. I got absorbed in the stories some of which I didn’t know before, but was a little shocked by the ending of Le Petit Chaperon Rouge which differs markedly from the versions of it I have heard in English!

It is a very good book for people like myself who is looking for short stories in French. I have learned French for more than 1 year. It is an audio book and a story book. It is at appropriate level for me.
C’est un très bon livre pour des gens comme moi qui sont à la recherche de nouvelles en français. J’ai appris le français pendant plus d’un an. Il s’agit d’un livre audio et d’un livre de contes. Il est au niveau approprié pour moi.

I love everything I’ve purchased (or been given!) from French Today. Camille, Olivier and Leyla are a pleasure to learn from and the work they’ve put in to their audiobooks is great quality. I’ve been learning French for 25 years and I learn something new every time with them. My skills have increased in the years since I’ve found French Today and I wouldn’t be as far along without them. Merci beaucoup!!

Smart choice during this pandemic. Since the stories are generally familiar even if a bit hazy, it helps with the understanding. Camilla reads each with such expression and so clearly it was really encouraging to be able to understand a story.
Thank you so much Camille for your continuing emails and ideas for improving our french.

J’aimais beaucoup les “Classic French Tales”. Comme dans les blogs de “French Today”, il est utile d’avoir le choix d’une traduction ou non. Merci pour une autre bonne idée pour passer le temps du confinement!

I was able to enjoy this audio book through a special promotion during the Covid-19 quarantine. It was truly a delight. French Today audiobooks are always such a great learning tool, but I especially enjoyed this one because I got to hear the classic versions of many fairytales that I only knew Americanized versions of.
Camille has such a beautiful voice and pronounces everything so clearly that it is very easy to follow. I look forward to my next French Today audiobook.
