Learn French the easy way with Marco's stories, and pick up good habits from day one!

Lots of people who only learn French from books quickly pick up bad habits, especially when it comes to pronunciation, how to use articles, and prepositions. These habits fast become ingrained, and very hard to get rid of. This book will help you develop good habits from day one (or get rid of the bad ones you already have), by covering the most common errors that people make.

It's useful to already know a few French basics when using this book, but it's also possible to start using it if you don't have any prior knowledge of French. This book allows you to easily review and consolidate what you already know. This is done through reading a simple story, listening to recordings throughout the text, and through English translations of the French text, so that you understand all the vocabulary. There are also gap-fill exercises so that you can test what you've learned.

Each chapter tells a short story about Marco, an Italian who's learning French. The difficulty level increases over the course of the chapters, and the vocabulary used has been chosen from the 1000 most-used French words.
Each chapter has been written with three areas of focus in mind:
1.Pronunciation, as it's important to pronounce new words correctly from the start.
2.Vocabulary, with the English translation of the text opposite the French version. This avoids any uncertainty about the meaning of a phrase.
3.Grammar, with short exercises and corresponding answers, so that you can see for yourself where you're making mistakes (if you're making any at all!).

By using this book, you avoid developing bad grammar and pronunciation habits before moving on to the next chapter.

This book is not just another textbook. It's a step-by-step guide, a sort of virtual teacher guiding you through each chapter, allowing you to put together different aspects of French naturally and effortlessly.

The audio recordings are available in two speeds:
1.A slower pace, to let you really hear the pronunciation of each word.
2.A faster pace, so that you can get used to hearing how native French speakers really speak.
