Welcome to the 'Alex and Friends' story website Enjoy learning and revisiting languages through our stories * Make improving language skills at home, in the car or in the classroom fun * and learn about the inside of a beehive in English, French and Spanish

Alex and Friends 'Alex and Friends' is an enjoyable way to reinforce language learning via an entertaining story, told in pictures, and also as a spoken audiobook on CD. You can find the characters and creatures in the pictures while listening to the story in a choice of languages; or follow the text from the transcript. It's fun, covers useful everyday vocabulary and accustoms you to following narrative by native speakers. All three - pictures, text and voice - are combined in the version (English only at present) for the interactive whiteboard, a useful classroom tool to make language learning exciting.

English, French, Italian, Spanish, German or Russian? Having studied for some time, do you now want to put your knowledge to good use and be able to understand and speak with the same command, ease and speed you have with your own language? That's the whole idea behind our story: immersion in the language so that you absorb it the way that children learn, by hearing native speakers, and by repetition of useful every day language and vocabulary. Even better, the audiobook of our story includes the transcript - yet these don't cost a fortune. Have a look around site using the links on the left, get stuck in, enjoy the story, and leap into the language!
