About this listen
What is the most challenging thing about learning Italian?
It is finding helpful and engaging listening material that you can actually understand. That is exactly what inspired us to bring out this audiobook.
How is a student supposed to learn when language instructors love providing materials that are tough, expert-level literature with tons of grammar and rules? That style of book for new language learners can be overwhelming, and lead you to flip back and forth between a dictionary and your book constantly! Not an effective use of your time nor the best way to learn.
Is this how children learn their language skills? No.
Enter Italian Short Stories for Beginners. You will find 10 easy-to-listen, engaging, and fun stories that will help you to expand your vocabulary and give you the tools to improve your grasp of the Italian language.
Improve your comprehension, grow your vocabulary, and spark your imagination with these 10 unconventional Italian short stories! All the stories are narrated using vocabulary that you could easily use in your day-to-day conversations.
The stories are designed with beginner Italian learners in mind. With that said, it is highly recommended to have a basic understanding of Italian to achieve maximum enjoyment and effectiveness of the lessons.
This program is excellent for those who want to get an introduction to the language or brush up on their Italian language skills.
How to use Italian Short Stories for Beginners:
- Each story contains an important lesson in the Italian language, involving an interesting and entertaining story with realistic dialogues and day-to-day situations.
- A summary in Italian and in English of what you just listened to, both to review the lesson and for you to gauge your comprehension of what the tale was about.
- At the end of those summaries, you’ll be provided with a list of vocabulary found in the lesson as well as phrases that you may not have understood the first time!
- Finally, you’ll be given clever questions in Italian, so you can prove that you learned something in the stories.
Even if you have tried multiple times to learn Italian, these short stories will give you the jumpstart you need to finally grasp the language! Act now and buy Italian Short Stories for Beginners and start learning the fun way!

Italian learning to the next level
These stories are narrated with a clear, crisp native Italian speaker. I agree with some of the reviews, this narrator is very good. I use these stories with my personal tutor and so far it's helping greatly.

boring voice and lower quality sound
for those interested:
pros - the stories are very interesting from content point of view, a lots of vocabulary
cons - voice used to read the stories is definitely not an italian, its very very monotone, missing typical italian intonation
it is not book or stories for beginners, I have finished 2 years course on duo lingo and read several similar books before, its not for beginners, but rather for intermediary
if you care about reading, you will learn a lots of vocabulary, if you care more for listening it low quality and boring voice, not even close to italian

Good stuff.
The narrator is quite professional. These stories bring a fun and unique way to learn Italian. The narrator has a smooth, clear voice and delivers at a speed that makes it easy to understand. The overall audiobook is structured with the learner in mind which has key vocabulary recapped at the end of each story. A summary in Italian and English along with 5 thought provoking questions that I found very helpful to enforce my understanding of not only the new Italian words, but the overall story as well.

The opposite of boring
Italian has always been a bit of a challenge for me. I grabbed a copy of this audiobook for entertainment purposes, something to listen to while I was running around. I'm delighted that I did. I'm picking more Italian than I expected.

Not terrible
What helped me most were the list of vocab words and summaries both in English and Italian. The pdf doc is essential so I could make sure I was hearing the Italian correctly.

Improve your Italian pronunciation
This audiobook really helps with how to pronounce every word in Italian. From what I've experienced, if you are learning a new language, it's an advantage if you know how to pronounce it as well and not just learning how to write or use the words in a sentence.
