Nelson Thornes Ltd The Arabic Club Readers: Red Band A: Time For School

I bought this book, along with several others from this series, to help ease me into basic Arabic language reading. As with many early reader series, books are graded according to difficulty, number of words, etc., and this title is in the most basic level. The font is large (which I desperately need as an Arabic reading noob!) and full diacritics (short vowels/vocalization) are included. This book does NOT offer a super-exciting story but introduces basic useful vocabulary (entirely in Arabic, with no transliteration or translation), some useful repetition, and really great color illustrations. I'm a middle-aged professor and for my purposes as an adult learner of Arabic, this book (and others I've bought in the series) offers a nice break from textbook dialogues, giving the opportunity for additional practice and the chance to progressively build reading skills in the Arabic language. In comparison to similar "early reader" books I've encountered in English and Spanish, this is superbly done.شكراً

It is colorful . I LIKE IT

Absolutely fabulous! I have been searching for Arabic books like these for a couple of years now. Most Arabic books for children have a couple of paragraphs on each page - which I always find a little daunting. These are simple - they have a few words on each page and build on your vocabulary little by little. I started learning in September (officially) and these are going to help me no end. My 4 year old daughter is also learning and she will use them too. I'm going to buy the entire set, they are that good. A true find.

A good book for kids, my niece loves it, she is improving her Arabic language and enjoying the illustration

Good book to learn basic Arabic. Has vowelling init.
