Two students are fascinated by outer space, but when their new teacher seems to know more about Mars than anyone could possibly know, they start to suspect that something is unusual. As they encounter inexplicable events, they become convinced their teacher is actually from Mars.
How can they prove it? And who will believe them? They may be the only ones who can discover the truth!

Language learning is seen as something incredibly difficult, and most speakers of English are brought up with the idea that we English speakers just aren't good at learning languages. But what if this isn't the true story? What if you could easily learn a new language and have fun doing it? In this book, I pull back the curtain to reveal the mindset and methodology of a polyglot. This book will dispel the myths, lay the foundations of the correct mindset for success, and inspire you to commit to learning that language you've always wanted to master.

In the past, correct spelling, the multiplication tables, the names of the state capitals and the American presidents were basics that all children were taught in school. Today, many children graduate without this essential knowledge. Most curricula today follow a haphazard sampling of topics with a focus on political correctness instead of teaching students how to study.

Words. We use them all the time, every day, mostly without giving them much thought at all. We take for granted that they’re here at our disposal whenever we need them. But if you’ve ever wished you could communicate more effectively, words are the place to start. It’s incumbent upon you to choose the best words to accomplish your goals, because how you choose to communicate influences—well, everything! The power of communication shapes our professional goals, our relationships, and our lives—so the words we choose to use carry a great deal of power.

At thirty years old, Gabriel Wyner speaks six languages fluently. He didn’t learn them in school—who does? Rather, he learned them in the past few years, working on his own and practicing on the subway, using simple techniques and free online resources—and here he wants to show others what he’s discovered. This is brain hacking at its most exciting, taking what we know about neuroscience and linguistics and using it to create the most efficient and enjoyable way to learn a foreign language in the spare minutes of your day.

Great book, poor audiobook
The content is great, and it's amazing that they can write such a compelling story with such a limited vocabulary.
However, the narrator has a staccato reading style and her voice never varies with the 6 speaking characters or with events in the book. If you are reading along while listening then this doesn't matter too much, but this makes only listening difficult to follow.
Unfortunately, the audio quality is also very poor with an uncomfortable sibilance. There is really no good reason for this as it is something that can be cleaned up quite a bit after recording.
All in all, I recommend reading the book, but skipping this audiobook.

Very enjoyable story with which to improve listening comprehension
I decided not to read the text of the story but rather see if I could simply listen and comprehend what was being said. I used the Kindle copy of the book only if I got stuck on understanding a certain word or phrase. I found this a very enjoyable way to use my time in the car for something constructive.

Why does the narrator sound like a machine?
I just finished reading my physical copy of this book, which I really enjoyed for the care put into the story and the illustrations. It’s my first graded reader ☺️.
I was hoping to follow it up by passively listening to the audiobook so that I can pick up the right tones and get familiar with the rhythm of how a Chinese narrator would read aloud.
However, I’m really disappointed that it’s not listenable at length. The voice sounds like it’s done by Google Translate, with no “character” to it, no expression to the dialogue of the children or anything.
