Among our many readers, Bethany Patridge expressed the following regarding our didactic series of books:
"These books are great for building your confidence. I always thought I had to be fluent in Spanish before I started to try and read Spanish but I have found that just as when you read English you often skim many of the words and still comprehend it. So, I read this, one or two pages at a time and looked for the words I knew then I had the gest of the story and could review the vocab and the questions. After that, I reread the whole chapter and looked up words I didn't know. Then I read it a third time all by myself. I couldn't believe I was reading a story in Spanish but it really felt good." THANKS FOR CHOOSING US AND ENJOY YOUR READING PRACTICE!
