Pros & Cons
Pros
The stories aren’t too hard and not easy it’s a great middle ground if you’re an intermediate learner. Good transition of complexity of the stories, starting from very basic to intermediate. I enjoyed the stories and learnt at the same time.

A good confidence booster. Great for real beginners. Repetition of vocabulary helps the learning stick.

Cons
