The book is accessible for (very) advanced beginner/intermediate students of french. This little book is a great entryway into conversational french.

The story line is about solving a mystery so it is compelling to keep reading. The story is fun and fast-paced and the conversations are realistic. The stories are easy to read and i can often intuit the meanings of new words from the context.

    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    It is in fact one long story broken down into conversations


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    I just thought there would be examples of everyday conversations which would be more helpful than one story


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    I will reread several times and likely will get more out of the story each time

    Wish there were additional volumes of this same level just to have more practice reading

    Unfortunately if you are learning multiple languages then the story is the same one for the others languages

    Its too boring to read the same in italian and french just the characters and city names changed

    List of words are old school and useless if you don’t know how to use it in a context
