ABOUT US

We have been publishing easy French readers and audiobooks for the second language learner since 1970. Our books reflect a variety of themes and styles, and are written in simple, easy-flowing French, using everyday vocabulary and expressions. Aquila readers are not translations or adaptations: They are original, authentic, age and level-appropriate texts especially written for the young reader of French as a second language. Most of our books are written in dialogue format and will amuse readers with short, humorous stories in everyday situations: School, family, sports, ordering meals, friends, winter holidays, shopping, the environment, anti-bullying, racism, media literacy and many more familiar, everyday themes children, young adults and teenagers can relate to. Books contain an exhaustive French-English vocabulary (optional) and a multitude of activities for comprehension, vocabulary and easy grammar. Our audiobooks – and new audio-visual e-books which feature highlighted read-along text – have been recorded by professional actors playing the roles of the characters in the stories. These audiobooks are A great way to reinforce both reading and listening comprehension. We have hundreds of readers and audiobooks for many reading levels.
