Level A1 - Graded Reader for German Learners
Enjoy 24 of the Brothers Grimm's most beloved fairy tales, retold in simple, clear German for beginning readers - no dictionary required.
This collection brings together Little Red Riding Hood (Rotkäppchen), Cinderella (Aschenputtel), Snow White (Schneewittchen), Rapunzel, Rumpelstiltskin (Rumpelstilzchen), and nineteen more classic tales across eight themed chapters, each one simplified to CEFR level A1: short sentences, present tense, and a small, high-frequency German vocabulary.
What's included:
- 24 complete stories in German, across 8 themed chapters
- A 5-word vocabulary review after every story (120 words total) - each German word paired with its English translation and a German example sentence
- 3 comprehension questions in German after every story, to check your understanding
- A full table of contents for easy navigation
Perfect for: English-speaking learners of German at the A1 level who want to read real, well-loved literature without getting lost in complicated grammar or rare vocabulary. Ideal for self-study, classroom use, or anyone who wants a gentle, encouraging way into reading in German. As a bonus, since German is the original language of these tales, you'll be reading the Brothers Grimm's stories exactly as they were first written - just simplified for your level.
A note on this edition: This is a simplified retelling, not the unabridged original text. Some details have been adapted or softened to suit A1-level readers. If you're looking for the complete, original Grimms Märchen, we recommend seeking out an unabridged edition.
