It is hard to find books for adult learners that are not for children. These books are exactly what I was looking for.

I got so lost in the first Baumgartner and Momsen mystery that I read my first German book without realizing it.

I was able to hold a 10 minute conversation with a non-English speaking person in Mallorca, and only from reading the Dino Lernt Deutsch series.

What I liked about the Dino books was that they were not just learning text but actually fun stories to read.
