Reading is still one of the most convenient ways to make a language stick, because you're actually using the language while learning it, instead of merely memorizing isolated bits and pieces.Each part of the story is accompanied by an original illustration, so that even when you don't understand all the words, you can still get the gist of it and put the missing words in context.In addition to that, each picture is followed by a table containing translation and transliteration (pronunciation guide).If in the end, you're still not sure whether you're pronouncing the words correctly, listen to the accompanying audio file.This book contains:- full color illustrations- two different versions of the book- vocabulary and pronunciation guide- translations of words and phrases- a free audio guide- questions to train text comprehension
