Simple texts, authentic language
Each short story is written with very common vocabulary, short sentences, and explicit information. In addition, the very textual organization of each story helps the student to draw the correct inferences about the meanings communicated. However, the natural expression of everyday Portuguese is fully maintained.
Fun Stories
As well as being simple and easy to read, the texts are a lot of fun. This proves that learning a language doesn`t have to be an arduous or tedious process.
Help with new words
The main challenge when starting to learn a language is to retain many words in a short space of time. This book provides English translations of many words that the student may not know or may know poorly. There is also an alphabetical glossary at the end of the book. This makes it easier for the reader to review the form and meaning of words at any time.
Stories with exercises (and solutions)
After each story, there is a short set of exercises to test comprehension and help consolidate vocabulary. These exercises are very easy and work more as a pretext for the student to find words and sequences again. All the exercises have solutions at the end of the book.
