First Grade Reading Material

[Radish8]

Just gonna awkwardly quote myself to give you the links…

There is also a huge selection of 10分で読める books, which are actually aimed at Japanese children and graded according to the Japanese school system, but apparently quite manageable for foreign learners. The higher the grade, the more kanji will be utilised (see the WK Stats site for an idea of how your WK level matches up). Links are to the first grade in each series, on CDJapan:

• 10分で読めるお話 (6 grades)
• 10分で読める物語 (6 grades)
• 10分で読める名作 (6 grades) - famous stories / classics
• 10分で読める伝記 (6 grades) - biographies
• 10分で読めるこわい話 - (2 grades) scary stories
• 10分で読めるわらい話 - (2 grades) funny stories

Basically, search for 10分で読める and prepare to be overwhelmed by choice. This blog post outlines the pros and cons of this type of book and provides even more suggestions.
