Andre has created a great resource. His success is attributable to a variety of factors:
1. Stories are short.
2. Many new words in each story.
3. Comedy.
4. Review with questions and vocabulary.
Caveat: Reader needs a strong beginner’s background in German. Otherwise it will be too difficult,

The books are engaging to read, but stretch a beginners knowledge just enough to learn more while enjoying the stories. The helpful review questions and definitions after each chapter make it all clear.
Great for beginners

This is a great first book for German language learners. Very easy to read. Vocabulary translations are at the end of each chapter. For anyone who uses Duolingo, this is a great companion and/or next step.
Good for my purposes

This is a series of short stories about a young man studying in Germany. Each chapter is two or three pages long, and is followed by translation of many phrases and a series of multiple choice questions. I try to expose myself to a bit of German every day, and found this book served my purposes well.
Very helpful!

I really enjoyed reading this book. My German language skills are beginner. I felt so proud of myself for being able to read an entire book in German! I can't wait for more after Köln!
