The low unique word count and high-frequency factor (the number of times core structures are embedded in the text) in the Comprehension-based™ reader, ‘El nuevo Houdini’, make this an ideal read for beginning Spanish students. Remember, the principle behind providing this comprehension-based reader is not to focus on grammar, but rather to focus on the story.
