Explain enough grammatical and syntactical information about the German language to enable you to read any desired text with the aid of a dictionary.
Explain elements of word formation to accelerate the process of learning vocabulary.
Lead the reader through practice in small-scale translation as the necessary foundation for dealing with more complex readings."Das Auto: A German Reader by Markus Lham

'The best way to learn a foreign language is to start reading it! Each book in the 'German Reader' series comprises three original German short stories, with English translations placed next to the German text, so that you can translate the stories as you read. Perhaps more importantly, all the stories are page-turners that are guaranteed to leave you on the edge of your seat - learning a foreign language has never been so enjoyable!'"
