Contains more than twenty short stories in Spanish with accompanying exercises and suggested activities designed to develop reading comprehension, vocabulary, grammar, and writing skills.
Excellent stories with interesting characters from all backgrounds and many surprise endings. Excellent review of vocabulary and Spanish language concepts for someone at the beginner/intermediate or intermediate level (most likely B1 or B2). We used this book when I went to college, but I'm going through it in more detail now. I will definitely follow up on some of these authors, especially Francisco Jiménez and Julieta Pinto. I wish there were more questions that had answer keys in the back and a greater variety of question types/games as I'm going through this on my own. A minor quibble. Really just a solid short story collection.
