Really Simple Stories + mp3
 
Dear friends,
I need your help. I am looking for some really easy stories (10-20 sentences, simple words) WITH audio. Is there any website ??? Really easy and short sentences and nice slow voice... For 11-year-old beginner - suffering from dyslexia.

Something like:
Today is Monday. I am going to school now. The weather is nice. The sun is shining. The birds are singing. But I am unhappy. I don �t like Math. The first lesson is Math. I am sad... I want to play football!
Hmmm..... I know what ! I will ask my teacher to go out instead! Well, now I AM happy.


Flash stories would be perfect too...
I have read many websites, but most stories are too difficult OR
there is perfect MP3 audio, but the story primary for ENGLISH pre-schoolers, so the vocabulary and sentence structure is too complicated / too childish... :-(

Have you found any EFL webpage with really short stories + audio?
PLEASE RECOMMEND !

THANK YOU !!!

hI...it �s very hard to find good ones...what i did was to use online stories. I recorded the audio in a cassette (i connected the audio system with the pc) and then i copied the drawings by pressing "impr pant pet sis" key (this key copyes what it �s in your screen) then you paste the page in word and print it. There you have audio and image....it �s very useful!!!
I hope i was clear!!

Try Tumblebooks.com Although it cost approx. 300 dollars a year to access it, you can try to access it through a local library. Also, you do get a thirty-day free trial.
