Billy the Bunny is painting a picture. He knows just how he wants it to look, but each of his friends has a different idea--and they all want to help. Penny the Puppy, Greta the Goose, and a parade of other animals add to the mix, and soon Billy's picture is nothing like what he imagined. Is it a puppygoose? A porcuphant? What will Billy do? From the creators of Curious George, Spotty, and Pretzel, this story about art and individuality is back in print after many years. It will be welcomed by any small child ready to giggle.

Intermediate Learners Will Enjoy
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 17 years ago
This is a great book for intermediate German learners who want to take the next step to becoming fully literate in German. As the previous reviewer mentioned, the story is on one page and the opposing page is full of vocabulary that will help you get through the story. This is not for beginners however, as it moves rather quickly and expects you to know the grammar forms. It does build practice with grammar however. The exercises in the book are excellent. They have you use sentences from the literature and dissect them in order to build grammar skills. There are also questions to answer about the reading that provoke the use of good sentence form. Der Weg zum Lesen provides a well-needed break from textbook learning, while still providing enough learning material to make it worth every penny. There is only one slight problem. This book was written before the 1996 German spelling reform (Rechtschreibreform) and contains what would now be called spelling errors. This is very minor though, and won't get in the way of learning whatsoever. Overall, this is a priceless resource for the intermediate German student who's ready to read German literature or strengthen their vocabulary and grammar.
great for English speakers learning German

This book has easy to read contemporary short stories. The stories are all written on just the right page, and on the left page are definitions for words that may be new or unfamiliar to the reader. The exercises after each story are also very useful to see if you understood the story and also to practice your German grammar skills. You definitely need to have had German in the past to be able to understand the stories in the book. I would recommend this to an intermediate level German student.
