The Classic Spanish Reader... Modernized!
Pioneering Pobre Ana readers proved that an entire novel could be written with a limited word count, and showed students they could read a whole book in their first year as Spanish learners! In this updated version, there are fresh, stylish illustrations and the text has had a makeover to bring it up to date, but the timeless plot remains the same: Ana thinks her life is bad because she has difficulties with her family and compares herself to her friends, so she goes to Mexico for a few months to escape her problems and finds a new perspective.
