Is There Still Good in the World? (Tunisian)
The Tunisian Arabic Readers series provides learners with much-needed exposure to authentic language in context. The five stories in the series are all written at a similar level (B1–B2) and can be read in any order. They’re a fun and flexible tool for building vocabulary, improving comprehension, and developing overall fluency.
The main Arabic text appears on even-numbered pages, fully vocalized with tashkeel (diacritics) to support reading. Parallel English translations are provided on the facing odd-numbered pages to help you understand new words, expressions, and cultural references.
For those who are up to the challenge, a second version of the text is provided at the back of the book, without the distraction of tashkeel and translations.
Each story includes 20 comprehension questions with sample answers (and English translations) to reinforce your understanding. You’ll also find a sequencing exercise to help review the story by putting ten key events back in the correct order.
What’s New in the Revised Editions?
The Tunisian Arabic Readers series has been updated to make it even more useful for learners. The new editions (published May 2025) feature:
- Revised English translations for improved clarity and accuracy
- Audio Track Timestamps above the translations to help you find your place
- 20 comprehension questions for each story, with sample answers and English translations
- A sequencing exercise to help you review the key events of the story in order
