Simon Baumgart, Germany

The textbook offers a diversity of texts - fairytales, short stories and anecdotes and they always carry a deeper meaning, which turns out to be a very good basis for discussion. The exercises help a lot to learn to examine the core issues and to understand, what the texts really talk about. They often work with repeating the texts from various points of view, which makes it much easier to memorize new vocabulary and phrases and to analyze grammatical constructions. The texts are neither too short nor too long for a regular practice and last but not least the delicate illustrations make it even more enjoyable.
