5.0 out of 5 stars
Excellent Learning Tool,
By A Customer
This review is from: Selected Folktales/Ausgewahlte Marchen: A Dual-Language Book (Paperback)
I am a German student of three years, and I got this book in hopes to improve my German skills. I think that this is absolutely the best book a German student can get.-A German-English Dictionary is not necessary to read this book -Most stories are well-known, so even a student that doesn't have strong skills in either language can generally understand the stories -On the left page is the German version, and the right page has the English version -Most of the stories were intended for children anyway, so there aren't too many complicated words. This book is great. I can practice German even when I'm not in the classroom! I recommend it for a student of German or English.

I really liked the book! when I ordered it I thought since it was a book of tales that it would have big font and drawings (thus take away from the writing - what really interested me) However, once I got it I realized it is compete with writing and a good size font. The stories are excellent for learning German, and the text is for young people yet not childish. I recommend it!

good book, not for beginners,

This review is from: Selected Folktales/Ausgewahlte Marchen: A Dual-Language Book (Paperback)
This is an excellent book with fine historic background. Do not assume that this is for beginners though. The old style german is probably better for intermediate to advanced readers.

5.0 out of 5 stars
An excellent choice!,
By Dr. Jena Questen "Jena Eddy" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Selected Folktales/Ausgewahlte Marchen: A Dual-Language Book (Paperback)
This book was an excellent choice for me with my limited German reading skills. I can read the familiar fairy tale in English to help me piece together the meaning of the words I do not know in German. I love that it is full of classic fairly tales. It is not for beginers, but it's still like having "training wheels". I am am very pleased with the purchase.
