No other resource for German like this one

I rarely write reviews. But sometimes an excellent product leads me to action! This audiobook uses an exceptionally effective method for learning German. Each sentence is spoken in fast German, then in English and then in fractionally slower German, twice. I think this method is most useful for those who have some background in German language (ECF level A2 for example) but those at other levels should also get considerable benefit. I would encourage the authors to create more books like this. While this story is complete in itself, I would look forward to hearing more about the further adventures of Griff! A small technical note (not so important) is that part of the story is repeated. But it doesn’t really matter as repetition is the key to language learning anyway!
