A review by samdalefox
Das Römerzimmer ; Der Schneider von Osterwyk by August Winnig

mysterious sad fast-paced

2.75

I am reading several 'Easy Readers' from A2-B1 level to help my German language progression. Both of these stories were short and fast paced. Several words were explained in the footnotes or in pictures, however there were several words I also needed to look up. It is easy enough to understand the stories from context. Considering how old this book is I was pleasantly surprised to see hardly any outdated words or phrases (that I'm aware of). 

Das Römerzimmer 3⭐ - my favourite, very quick surprise ending that I went 'Nooooo!' at.
Der Schneider von Osterwyk 2.75⭐- a bit dark for a children's story, slightly less easy to follow.
