This book, the first in a series, should be the first novel you read in French! Reading a book in French can be difficult, even for advanced students. French novels are usually full of idiomatic expressions. They use complicated tenses, complex sentence structures, and often slang. This book is in simple French. It's about the joys and the frustrations of an adult learning French. It includes a good dose of humor, a few exercises, and illustrations. Note: this book contains adult language. A school edition of the book without adult language entitled Oh La La, It's Not Easy Learning French is available now on Amazon. The book has two sections, allowing more levels of French students to enjoy it. Section 1 has the story written completely in French, and includes grammar exercises. Section 2 contains a list of the more difficult vocabulary translated into English and the complete text in English so students can check their comprehension.
