Publisher's summary

If you want to learn German quickly and without getting bored, don't waste any more time. Keep reading...

Learning a new language is not easy, and it can be quite boring and tiring if you don't have the right tools to learn it. This is also why many people choose to travel and dive directly in the place, but it is not such a simple solution for everyone. It will seem like a misplaced question, but science helps you here: Do you know that we memorize and learn information more easily through stories? That's because our brain likes it, and it has been so used to it from an early age, with the stories they told us, cartoons etc. In this way, we are more inclined to learn. As a result, it is easier to learn and memorize a new language by listening to stories.

Now, I don't want to influence you by saying that mine is the best book in circulation. You will be the judge, as you surely know there are several books similar to this one for learning German, but they are not really optimal or suitable for beginners for different reasons: complicated terms are used, they have too long stories with no parallel text in English, lack of vocabulary, grammatical errors, lack of techniques and suggestions, and other carelessness issues that you will not find in this book.

These are some of the things you'll be learning form this audiobook:

• Tips and techniques about learning languages and key insights into learning German
• The fundamentals of the German language
• Some of the most complex issues of the German language
• Verb conjugations in the Present Tense
• 25 dual-language lessons in parallel text, broken down into verb tenses
• The present simple tense with the verb "sein"
• The present simple tense
• And much more!

By purchasing this audiobook, you will have the big advantage that only this book offers - the parallel translation of the stories in English, which will definitively cancel any difficulty in understanding and memorizing the text.

Good resource

Love these stories. They are pretty much the way people really speak. Just the right length. The vocabulary at the end is very helpful.

Quick and Entertaning way to Learn German

"First off, I'd say you still need to have a good grasp of German, because it's not for complete beginners who don't know any words in German. Probably more for the Level 2 to 3 beginner to intermediate.

Appreciate it

I enjoyed reading the stories in this book. I was born in Germany, but being young and coming to America with my family, I lost my German. But I can still read and understand most of the language. This helps me keep current.

Great learning

if you would like to learn German you should really have this book, it has all the basics that you need!! you can definitely save some money in beginner classes , read this book put some time into it and you will see results, the way its structured makes it very easy for you to understand, Great Job !!! Highly recommended!!! A++++

Very helpful, highly recommended

It is very easy to understand and I find it as a great way how to extend vocabulary and also improve a fluency just by listening to it daily. Highly recommend for anyone who learns German.

Effective

These are basically beginning short stories for those wanting to be able to read German fluently. They're quite short, rather odd, but keep your interest. I would arrange the book slightly differently but it works.

Simple, concise and fun stories

"These short stories are a perfect bridge to a more advanced German fluency level.
A charming way to practice fluency with real world situations -- what I mean to say is that the content, rich vocabulary, and a range of tenses makes for great practicing material."

Pretty good.

Great book for learning German. Stories are easy enough to follow and key vocabulary is repeated throughout the text which helps towards learning it.. Would highly recommend it.

Great fun.

I am very much a beginner, so I'd say that they suit that level most.

Rekindled my love for German

I forgot how much I love German. It's been a while since went over my German knowledge. I still remember a ton and this was a nice refresher that proved how beautiful the language is. Definitely helps when the narrator is calm and enthusiastic at just the right moments throughout the stories. Cool idea!
