Servus! Take your German to the next level and boost your vocabulary, reading comprehension and grammar sense with episode 7 of the bestselling Dino lernt Deutsch German short story series for beginners!

In the wake of the events of Plötzlich in Palermo, Elisabeth lands a promising job in Vienna which comes with many perks but demands a lot of traveling, while Dino is left to his own devices.

Pampered by Viennese "Gemütlichkeit" and slightly confused by yet another German dialect, he hangs around in coffeehouses until he saves the day for someone whose gratitude elevates him into a position of prestige and responsibility.

Explore the Austrian capital, learn about Viennese coffee culture, local cuisine and improve your German effortlessly along the way.

Learning German Doesn't Have To Be A Struggle

Just got started learning German? Memorized a few words but struggle with longer texts? We've all been there. This book is designed to help beginners make the leap from studying isolated words and phrases to reading (and enjoying!) naturally flowing German narrative.

Using simplified sentence structures and a very basic vocabulary you can build upon, this set of 10 connected short stories is carefully crafted to allow even novice learners to fully immerse themselves in an authentic German language experience.

Each chapter comes with a complete German-English dictionary with special emphasis on collocative phrases (high frequency word combinations), short sentences and expressions designed for improved memorization.

By working with these building blocks instead of just single words, learners can boost their active usage of new material instantly and make the learning process more fluid and fun.

What You'll Find In This Book

10 funny chapters of waltzing through the Austrian capital

a balance between cozy vocabulary and introduction of new words

tons of phrases and expressions you will actually use in daily life

fun facts about Viennese lingo, the famous Prater and other tidbits

a detailed German-English dictionary after every chapter

enough support to make following along easy, without spoiling your own efforts

fun short quizzes to check your text-comprehension (including answers)

a relatable protagonist and other fun characters

hand-drawn illustrations by the author

the beginning of a grand German learning adventure ...

Read, Learn & Collect Them All

Yes! That's right. This is the seventh episode of a whole series of exciting German short stories for beginners. Follow our protagonist to Frankfurt, Cologne, Hamburg, Zurich, Berlin and many other cities! Before you know it, you'll have travelled half of Europe and picked up more German than years' worth of expensive courses.

Learning German has never been more fun.

What You WON'T Find In This Book

parallel translations that may seem convenient but don't teach you anything

dull characters designed by academics and committees

interspersed English sentences that take you out of the reading flow

archaic German words and phrases nobody uses in real life

a jumble of unrelated places, people and events

wordy footnotes that only get in the way of immersion

condescending storytelling that insults your intelligence

a teaching approach which takes itself too seriously

A nice conclusion to the Dino series

Reviewed in the United States on November 15, 2016

Verified Purchase

A nice conclusion to the Dino series. Now moving on to Klein's mysteries series.
As previously noted, this series of books fit my needs perfectly. The stories were moderately interesting while keeping the vocabulary manageable. The text was over-glossed a tad, but better that than under-glossed, particularly for anything approaching idiom. Chapter lengths were also "just-right", more than a few pages, but not so long that it became annoying to move back and forth to the glossary when necessary (I read on a Kindle). The stories also have a bit of a contemporary feel to them, as one of the sub-plots involves refugees. So five stars for me.
(By way of reference, my German study consists of one year of college courses (years ago), a couple community ed courses (also years ago) and, more recently, self study, probably putting me at present somewhere in the vicinity of a second (college) year student.)

Mr Klein has once again given us a good story for the intermediate reader of German

Reviewed in the United States on July 26, 2016

Mr Klein has once again given us a good story for the intermediate reader of German. In this one, the vocabulary is much larger, but the careful reader will notice that while there are many more new words per chapter than in Mr Klein's other books, many are cognates, compound words, or understandable by context. Being able to read these stories the first time with hardly any stops to look up a word, and get all the meanings the second time and pick up a few things you missed the first time, makes all of this very enjoyable. And for a bonus, Mr Klein throws in a little Viennese dialect (sometimes you just have to memorize--just like idioms in English to a non-native speaker).

I have read many of Mr Klein's books, and enjoyed them all. I hope he'll give us a new one soon.

Fun Read

I'm a beginner learning German. I had a few high school courses, and spent some time on DuoLingo. That little bit of background is enough to enjoy these stories, which are realistic, interesting and funny. The good storytelling is the best motivation I have ever had to practice. The characters are endearing, especially Dino who has flaws we can all relate to. I've learned a lot and will read the whole series more than once.

What lovely, charming books these are. Not too easy, not too hard, they provide a distinct thrill when you’re able to read a paragraph at a time without looking in the dictionary for help. Just perfect for the beginner German student, or any lover of languages.

It is an entertaining painless way to learn or improve German skills. A cute real life story with a bit of romance provides interest and entertainment. I learned quite a bit and I consider my self somewhat fluent in German yet striving to improve. I like the way I can tap on words for translations as well as the key word translations at the end.

Excellent beginner tutorials for German. The whole series is great. Two are available as audiobooks so you can work on your pronunciation, but these books are geared toward vocabulary and a little grammar.

A huge confidence booster.

I have been learning German at evening classes for two years. We have an excellent teacher but I am rather slow!
This series of books really brings the language to life and gives a huge incentive to carry on.
Many words and phrases are made clear by context, and others are explained at the end of each chapter.
The stories are fun as well.

I am so glad to have discovered these books and would recommend them to anyone in the early stages of study.

An excellent aid to learning German.

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on September 6, 2019

Verified Purchase

I have a number of these readers written by Andre Klein and I find them an excellent aid to learning German. I listen to the book's audio while reading the stories and this helps me with my pronunciation and understanding of word order. I read each storey several times and note difficult words and phrases. Each storey is appended with a
list of difficult words translated into English. When I am happy that I understand the storey as thoroughly as possible I answer the exercise questions. at the end of each storey. I always use an online German/English dictionary for additional support.

Great for Learners

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on January 3, 2021

The book arrived promptly. I lead a German conversation group, mixed ability, and we have been using Andre Klein's books to read and translate. They are well written, and it is reassuring that,although relatively easy to read, they are grammatically correct and use modern German idioms. Everyone enjoys them. We are looking forward to continuing with the series.

The stories are read alone or read in order for the bigger picture. Vocabulary in bold makes for learners' progression very quickly. Love these books. Brilliant!
