Would you like to find a good book to read in Spanish? Are you tired of short stories that make no sense at all? Are you looking for a good story to read and not only for a book written in easy Spanish? Probably you will like El Planeta del Desierto Amarillo then. This Spanish book is the first volume of a series called El Universo de los Hanún-Ais. This series is composed of three original fantasy books graded in three levels: A2-B1(Introductory), B1-B2 (Intermediate) and B2-C1 (Advanced). Even though the three novels are placed in the same universe and are connected among them, every book is auto-conclusive, so you do not need to read the other two to understand the story.
These books have been written by J.M.Hernández, a native and experienced Spanish teacher who has a degree in Spanish linguistics and more than 10 years of teaching experience. His approach is creating language books with good and clear writing, careful explanation of the grammar and vocabulary, but, above all, with relevant and enjoyable content. He is passionate about fantasy stories and writers like J.R.R. Tolkien and Michael Ende among many others. He also loves helping students to grasp the details of his language. His main objective is to have a really enjoyable story and not merely something boring written in Spanish. His objective is to help you. You can learn Spanish and at the same time enjoy reading.
In this book you will meet Bayuná, a man who has lived his whole life in peace on El Planeta del Desierto Amarillo (The Planet of the Yellow Desert). His life and the life of his family and neighbours have always been happy and peaceful, almost idyllic. But suddenly a group of cruel enemies is invading his world and threatening the lives of the people who he loves. Manajaín-Ja is an Hanún-Ai (the Guardian and protector of the planet), but he cannot help the inhabitants of El Planeta del Desierto amarillo this time. What can Bayuná and his neighbours do? They do not know how to fight in a war... You can read the story in the first volume of the series.
In this book, you'll find:
-10 chapters of Story, 10 chapters of Comprehension and Composition exercises, and 10 chapters of Grammar explanations.
-Grammar topics have been introduced gradually from easier (A2) to more difficult (B1) in the text of the story itself.
-A complete and, above all, practical explanation of the grammatical topics. But the emphasis is on reading and enjoying, so, these explanations are at the end of the book so you can either read and study them or overlook them. That is up to you.
-Exercises of Comprehension and Composition, the introduction of different Vocabulary in every chapter, and a basic review of the Grammar of A1 level.
-Footnotes that have been designed to make your reading easier so you do not have to stop every minute when a complicated word comes up.
This volume is the regular version. This means that the answers to the comprehension and vocabulary exercises are included at the end of the book. If you are a teacher and want to use this book in your lessons, make sure that your students buy the Student's Book: With no Answers. We are sure that you will find these books more than helpful for your school year.
