hi! i am trying to learn spanish on my own, specifically mexican spanish, and i am have trouble finding beginner level reading material. I was wondering if theres any like kids/beginner level books you'd recommend
I have the best resource. Unlike other countries, the Mexican government makes its own books that are sent to every public school in the country (yes, the government makes the books, it doesn't pay to publishing houses to make them, history books may or may not be full of lies). One of the good things is they're made specifically for the Mexican people, which means Mexican Spanish and Mexican culture.
In Mexico we have six grades of elementary school and each grade has an anthology book of stories. Tho I think some stories are translations and some are by Mexican authors. But the best part is these books are available online, since the 1960 generation of books until the 2014 generation. I'm going to send you the ones my siblings and I used when we were in school and the most recent ones available, but you can go around the site and find the ones you like better. You can find there the Spanish books that are used to learn grammar, that might be useful too.
1st grade: 1993 (I think this one is more like songs ?), 1993, 2011, 2014
2nd grade: 1993, 1993, 1993, 2011, 2014
