Do you know what the hardest thing for a Portuguese learner is?


Finding PROPER reading material that they can handle…which is precisely the reason we’ve written this book!

Teachers love giving out tough, expert-level literature to their students, books that present many new problems to the reader and force them to search for words in a dictionary every five minutes — it’s not entertaining, useful or motivating for the student at all, and many soon give up on learning at all!

In this book we have compiled 20 easy-to-read, compelling and fun stories that will allow you to expand your vocabulary and give you the tools to improve your grasp of the wonderful Portuguese tongue.

How Portuguese Short Stories for Beginners works:


  • Each story is interesting and entertaining with realistic dialogues and day-to-day situations.
  • The summaries follow a synopsis in Portuguese and in English of what you just read, both to review the lesson and for you to see if you understood what the tale was about.
  • At the end of those summaries, you’ll be provided with a list of the most relevant vocabulary involved in the lesson, as well as slang and sayings that you may not have understood at first glance!
  • Finally, you’ll be provided with a set of tricky questions in Portuguese, providing you with the chance to prove that you learned something in the story. Don’t worry if you don’t know the answer to any — we will provide them immediately after, but no cheating!
We want you to feel comfortable while learning the tongue; after all, no language should be a barrier for you to travel around the world and expand your social circles!

So look no further! Pick up your copy of Portuguese Short Stories for Beginners and start learning Portuguese right now!

This book has been written by a native Brazilian author and is recommended for A2+ level learners.

4.0 out of 5 stars Great Tool for Reading Practice
Reviewed in the United States on August 27, 2019
Verified Purchase
When learning another language, it is important to study not only the language itself, like vocabulary and grammar, but also the culture and surrounding context in which the language exists. This particular collection of short stories provides a fun way to learn colloquial sayings, as they would be used in an everyday conversation, in a fashion that does not intimate or feel daunting in any way to the reader. Beginners can be easily discouraged if they think that their new language undertaking is maybe too much for them to handle. This book as a supplement to more concrete material will encourage the reader in a positive way with its approachable material.

5.0 out of 5 stars Good but more for late beginner/intermediate learners
Reviewed in the United States on August 14, 2019

Good stories to further your Portuguese learning. Obviously stories are not meant for a true beginner. As you learn a bit more and have some grasp of grammar and basic vocabulary this book will be useful. As the author says it is hard to find stories at this level. You usually have to struggle through books that are to far ahead and need to keep looking the words up. This is a good inbetween level.

Enjoyed the stories, though they can be a bit contrived to get the point across or fit in more examples. I would call it more intermediate than beginner

I just started learning Portuguese and there are too many words I don’t know yet. I am an A0 and have been studying Duolingo for six months. This book is way too hard and I was hopeful I finally found a book for an A0 but this isn’t it.

1.0 out of 5 stars Nicht für Anfänger auf A2+
Reviewed in Germany on October 27, 2023
Verified Purchase
Ist definitiv nicht für Anfänger auf A2 geeignet. Eher einiges höher und die Geschichten sind super langweilig. Teilweise voll die langen Sätze und dadurch schwierig zu verstehen. Weil es so langweilige Geschichten sind, kann man oder mag man gar nicht die Vokabeln behalten.
Also ich lerne schon einige Monate Portugiesisch und hab auch schon Short Stories gelesen auf A2+ Niveau, welche weitaus interessanter waren und einfach nur Spaß gemacht haben. Also wirklich wie ein Buch, wo man sich sogar aufs nächste Kapitel oder Geschichte freut.
Diese Geschichten in diesem Buch sind ein absoluter Krampf!
Dieses Buch war leider eine völlige Geldverschwendung.

I bought this book to find material which was interesting, accessible for my early intermediate level of Portuguese, yet introduces additional content in day-to-day language. a section after each story draws attention to the vocabulary. I find it an encouraging read, both silently, and out loud!
I recommend it as an individual user.

Reviewed in Australia on May 29, 2019

This book is very accessible for people that have just started to learn Portuguese, but also for people who are a bit more advanced. The stories are well written and the wordlist and quiz at the end of each story really helps a lot to solidify and test your skills. Would highly recommend to anyone who wants to improve their Portuguese!
