French Foundations and French in
Conversation are a written course, A1 then A2 — 48 chapters, pronunciation
under every line, and not one French word before it has been taught.
Alongside it, six printable workbooks, one for each Cocoon French course.
Every story you have watched, laid out to read aloud — with the English set to one side
so you can cover it, practice exercises built from the stories themselves, and
flashcards to cut out.
The summer Léo comes to stay, in 24 chapters. Both French past tenses and the choice between them, reflexive verbs, object pronouns and comparisons — a story in every chapter, the sound written out in plain English, and an answer key that explains why. Follows French Foundations and assumes every word it taught.
A year with Colette and Filou, in 24 chapters. Every chapter teaches one piece of grammar and one piece of pronunciation, with the sound written out in plain English under every French line — and not one French word appears before the book has taught it.
All six workbooks that go with the video courses — French from Zero, Little Stories, My Life in French, Phrases and Patterns, Real Life Conversations and The Verb Lab. 330 pages, every story, all 476 flashcards.

Not the written course — that is French Foundations and French in Conversation
A PDF, emailed to you
the moment you pay. Print it, write in it, or read it on a screen — it is yours to
keep. Nothing expires and there is no subscription.
Do I need the Club as well?
No. The books
stand alone. The Club is the same material made interactive — flashcards that come
back just before you forget them, saved progress, and new lessons every week. Plenty
of people use only one or the other.
Are the videos still free?
Yes, and they
always will be. Every lesson in every book has its video on the channel, free. The
books are for practising away from the screen.
Which one should I start with?
If you want a
course that teaches you the language in order, French Foundations.
If French is brand new and you would rather follow the videos,
French From Zero. If you are unsure, the free workbook on the
home page will tell you where you stand.
Can I get a refund?
Yes — reply to your
receipt within 30 days and you will get your money back, no questions asked. You can
keep the PDF.
