Tara's Most Popular Reviews
Very nice innovative concept for intermediate arabic learners to learn. The stories are very short, which makes it very easy to read and not boring. Some words aren't translated directly however, which makes it harder to pick up the new arabic vocabulary so I wish the translation was more exact. Overall a unique one of a kind book and I wish there were more books like this.
