Excellent! August 29, 2008
While reviewing spanish I discovered that children's books were the absolute best way to learn a language even for adults so I bought this series to help with a French class I was taking.
The repetition makes everything sink in, and the speakers tend to go slower. I have many CDs and books in both French and Spanish, but these are the best for getting words and pronunciations in my head.
These books include excellent CDs and I can recommend them all. You can follow along with the book and then go through that book's dictionary, each a separate track on the CD. Songs are also included--with the words. Occasionally you'll discover that the translation is not exact on the songs. When you do catch it, you realize how much you have learned. Don't be ashamed to use children's books for review! It works.
Oh, and if you are purchasing this for a child, these are still the best
Very Good! November 29, 2006

I own the three titles of the Adventures With Nicholas series, and although this is my favorite one (in part because of the songs that come at the end, which are really traditionall French songs... in part because the story is engaging and very easy to follow) I would recommend everyone to get the three titles.
Le Cinq Pastels is the easiest one, hence, the one to be used first.
