4.0 out of 5 stars
Delightful
This book contains many short french stories that are sure to be a big help to any beginner through intermediate level student. It enriches french vocabulary while simultaneously getting the reader used to translating in a non-strict, understandable manner. The opposite page with the english translation is a big help when one gets stuck on a new word!

Fables
Fables are entertaining and interesting, reasonably easy to understand for the intermediate French student. Not being familiar with De La Fontaine I was hoping for a short story format, and was surprised to find all of the fables in verse (poetry). All in all, a good book.

Consolidated reviews are not helpful.,
This review is from: Selected Fables (Penguin Classics) (Paperback)
AMAZON...Consolidating reviews for different books is NOT HELPFUL. Without looking too closely I ordered the penguin classic thinking it was dual language based on reviews posted here. Not what I wanted.

This book is in French and English. It is a nice tool to assist your knowledge with both languages or for intermediate learners in French (or English).
I highly recommend it to every fable lovers out there.

These fables are humorous and interesting. After I finish this book, my grand-children will enjoy the English, which is suitable for anyone above 8-10 years old. As with fables in general, there are lessons to be learned. I like dual language books.
