They have curated stories with narration, plus annotated notes.
If you want to improve your listening ability, I’d stay away from audiobooks and try watching anime/dramas without subs instead as you’ll be hearing actual dialogue and conversation. Audiobooks are also clearly articulated and the person usually speaks slower, which isn’t helpful if you want to get used to conversation.
I don’t have a recommendation for an audio book because I’m not sure what your reading preferences are, but TheMoeWay discord server has plenty of audiobooks so you can look there.
My advice is to listen to audio book that you previously read. Like that you can focus on the listening only and don’t have to struggle with vocabulary. This is the method I did with my Japanese teacher and I can now handle conversation at normal speed. 🙂
