"Easy Readers" have a long and honourable history spanning nearly 60 years. The brainchild of a small Danish publishing house in the darkest years of the Second World War, the series now comprises more than 170 titles in six languages. From the beginning, it has brought together publishers and editors in different countries in a unique collaboration to make available to language students authentic literature in an approachable, yet unpatronising format.

The choice of reading ranges from trusty classics to modern social drama, from comedy to detective stories. Each language is supervised by a specialist editor, whose brief is to simplify without losing the flavour of the original. Footnotes are used where needed; charming illustrations and uncramped pages make the challenge so much easier and the achievement very satisfying.
