Read “A Christmas Carol” in German for free

One way to practise German is to read a book where you already know the story in English.

Many people will be familiar with “A Christmas Carol” by Charles Dickens, and at the time of writing Amazon in Germany are offering a version of the book for the Kindle as a free download.

All you really need is an account with Amazon.de, and if you don’t have a Kindle – or don’t want to change yours over to the German shop – then you can use one of the apps to read the book on a tablet or even use the cloud reader for the PC.

Click on the book cover to visit the download page on Amazon.de

The book was free at the time of writing this article.  Please make sure that it is still being offered as such before downloading it.
