Do you like reading books? Can you suggest books that are easy to read in Spanish for beginners, or some movies?

Hi, of course! I hope some of these recommendations are helpful!

Books:

• Spanish Short Stories For Beginners by Lingo Mastery

• Short Stories In Spanish For Beginners & Spanish Short Stories For Beginners 2 by Olly Richards

• Easy Spanish Reader by William T. Tardy. This book is separated into three sections and the readings in each are followed by comprehension activities.

*All three of the previously mentioned books can be downloaded for free on https://z-lib.org

• This organization’s website has a few great picture books in Spanish that you can download for free. https://www.heifer.org/what-you-can-do/get-involved/schools/home-school-activities/books-and-reading-resources.html

• This website has a handful of great pdfs https://www.spanishplayground.net/spanish-books-for-beginners/

Spanish Playground

Spanish Books for Beginners of All Ages - Spanish Playground

Spanish books for beginners for different ages and interests. Free PDF downloads ,TPRS novels, leveled readers and other books for Spanish l

Movies:

• El Laberinto del Fauno (Pan’s Labyrinth) This is available on Netflix and I’d suggest watching movies with subtitles. If you’re able to, there’s a chrome extension you can download called Language Learning with Nextflix where you can have subtitles in both your native & target language

• I also suggest watching any movie you’re familiar with like if you love Disney movies you should find the Spanish version of them

Sorry I don’t have any true movie recs yet! If anyone has any other resources they know of, feel free to add them :)
