One of the best ways to learn Spanish (or any other language) is by reading something you can understand, especially if it is interesting to you. Therefore, you will read (and listen to!) a fictional short story, written at your level, that will not only help you learn Spanish, but also learn fascinating cultural and historical aspects about the Hispanic world. Once you finish, you may want to reflect about the products or practices you learned in this story and write about it in your Reflexión cultural.
