I have links on my website to literally thousands of “talking” stories that use simple English, provide audio and text support, and also show animated illustrations.  You can find most of them on my English For Beginners page under the Stories section.

I recently added a whole lot more.  A site called KidsFlash has hundreds of these talking stories.  I have them listed near the bottom of the Stories section and title them Flash Stories 1, Flash Stories 2, etc.
