I am currently in Milan, visiting some universities I am likely to attend, in addition to the one I have already been admitted to. I also made use of my visit by going to a library specialized in foreign language books, and happily spent 40€ of my pocket to buy 5 graded readers in German, which I’ll start as soon as I finish my Assimil beginner manual (I’ll write a review on that.) Here are the graded readers:
They all come with audio cds, recorded by professional actors. I’m going to OCR the texts, import them as private lessons on LingQ, and start phase 2 of my German learning!
@anunaki: Because you need permission to share copyrighted material. It is illegal to share these books publicly. Not to forget that Adalberto has spent 40€ for them.
Looks nice, but it’s a bit pricey for me. Not sure I’d get my money’s worth. One of the things I like about LingQ (although I haven’t been using it recently) is all the content here so I don’t have to bother scanning things in. For paper books, I just read them and leave it at that.
