German Short Stories in the Black Forest by Black Swan Languages is one of the best language-teaching books I’ve ever read. I moved abroad several years ago and wish I’d had a simple book like this to teach me my new language! This is an easy book to follow, allowing you to learn in small chunks at a time. Rather than having to learn a whole page of text, you simply do it one paragraph at a time, choosing when to move on at your own pace. The list of featured words at the start of each chapter helps focus the mind, and the glossary at the end is very useful. I enjoyed the chapter on the Black Forest, too, and found it informative. I would recommend this book for complete beginners and those looking for a refresher course on German."
