These books can be used in the classroom or at home, anywhere in the world.

NEW! We have added 3 short engaging novels to our parallel text collection! (Intermediate Level)

1) The Story of Matina from Poros Island: Greek English Parallel Text. Although it is a work of fiction, it gives you a glimpse of what life was like in Athens and the islands at the beginning of the 20th century when Greece was still a very poor country.

2) The Finding of the Cave on Poros Island: Greek-English Parallel Text.  This story centers on an eleven-year-old boy called Pavlo Zamanas, proud descendant of great-grandpa Zamanas who fought bravely in the Greek War of Independence in 1821.

3) Alexander - A Shoeshine Boy in Athens: Greek English Parallel Text. This story is about a twelve-year-old boy called Alexandros, or Alekos for short, who works as a newspaper seller and shoe shiner in the streets of Athens every day and goes to school in the evenings.
