Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from A German Reader for Beginners
The purpose of this book is to provide for the beginner in German easy and interesting selections which can be used profitably with the first lessons in the language. The place of such an introductory book cannot well be taken by short stories or plays or other simple texts, for even the easiest of them are not suitable for the earliest reading. They present difficulties of thought, style, and vocabulary, which either discourage the beginner or rob his study of most of its interest. Something simpler and more carefully graded is needed as an introduction to such texts, so that they may be eventually read with that sense of mastery which adds new zest to each day's work.
