As well as the Rocket German course I also wanted to start to read myself so I thought what better way than with German Children's books great for absolute beginners like me! I found this website where you can read German Children's books online for free. Thought I'd share my find:

Thanks for sharing the link :) I'd been thinking about reading german books but had no idea where to start, that link looks like it will be really helpful and pretty fun at the same time.
