Know that once you get the hang of the language you'll be rewarded with superb French prose -- imo there's often a lyricism to French novels that I've seldom found elsewhere (and that's coming from an English lit stan). Also, if you haven't already been, Galignani (rue de Rivoli) has a huge selection of English books. It can more expensive than Shakespeare & Co (yes) but I'd say it's worth checking out if you just want to browse rather than buy!

As someone who did the opposite that you're doing right now (learned English from French, also by full immersion), I've got a tip for you, if you want it: at the same time as the kids' books in French, you could also read the French versions of books you already know well in English. It really helps, because you already know the context, the story, etc, and instead of trying to "get" what's going on you can relax and focus on the language. It boosts not only your grammar, vocab and conjugation skills, but also your confidence, because you're actually reading books that you thought were above your level! And definitely don't get discouraged if you don't know every word, don't be to stuck to the dictionary: for a few weeks when I started reading in English, I was just powering through, definitely not trying to get every single word. But the more I read, the more my grasp on the language improved, and the more I understood from each book. Anyway, I'm really impressed you're doing this and putting so much effort in it, I think it's really cool! You're doing great!

You pronounce the "r" in French really well! I'm Canadian so all the teachers are anglophones typically who grew up believing the "r" was identical to the North American English "r" and it's just nottttttt. Native French people here can do well but no one in classes corrects the students and we grow up hearing it wrong. I only learned the right one after an exchange in France. It's quite a difficult sound for English (probably also some other languages)-speakers to learn so good job! Apparently it's the same as the Arabic "gh" so that's quite funny that these two languages would chose such different ways to write the same sound.

For beginning French reading, I would definitely recommend the short story Matin Brun by Franck Pavloff. It’s not for kids, but I read it when I was learning French in high school. I’m now a student at American college taking French, so I’ve been reading so many books! It’s been difficult, but I’ve really liked Le Rouge et Le Noir so far, it’s a classic from what I understand. Also, the movie La Belle Personne is based on the French classic La Princesse de Cleves. The original L’Etranger is pretty manageable to read in French too. Lastly, if you’re unsure, reading translations of books you’ve already read in English are probably good for vocabulary purposes. Bonne chance on your French journey!

Your numbers rant bloomin' sent me. "I bed your sitting well pardon?" Is the best thing I've ever heard.

Tips from a native french who had to learn english and others languages for classes: children books are great but not always the best solution! I personally found it easier to pick up books I was *genuinly interested in* like for example, my favorite series "The Inheritance cycle", I read the first volume in french, and went on reading the rest in english after rereading eragon in english. I already knew the story, so I could easily refer myself to the french version to understand the general meaning. It can be laborious, but since sentence structure isn't that far appart between english and french, and since both languages share quite a lot of common letter, it might help you pick up the pace more than a children book, where sentences will tend to be over simplified and not that much used in day to day life. Whatever you do, best of luck on your learning journey! It just makes me so happy to see you put so much effort into learning my native language 😭❤ I really really hope you're enjoying your time in France!
