Does anyone know good links for Books in German and Esperanto - Children's or Adults?
I found this http://www.ukGermanconnection.org/kids_new/?location_id=55 , which is quite good, because it also has audio with story. I know lots of people don't like to read children's story, but I personally think it a good idea to read those as they are easier to understand for a novice in particular language than your average adult books.
Any other links like this would be brilliant.

Have a look at the comprehensive list of Esperanto links in the Links section of the forum. I posted several sites with reading material there.
Be aware that children's books need not be easier than adults' books. For example, children's books are likely to contain animal-related vocabulary or cutsey language, which is almost never taught in language classes. Adult books typically draw on a larger vocabulary and better reading abilities of course, but they use words that you should have learned (or will eventually learn) in your course. Non-fiction aimed at adults is often particularly easy because of loanwords, e. g. IT terminology that is very often the same even in non-European language, and in European languages of course you have the same Greek- and Latin-derived terminology, ranging from "democracy" to "osmosis".
