Wikihow is a good site for beginner reading.

10 years ago when I was a lonely teenager and learning French, I somehow started reading wikihow articles like "how to find a girlfriend" or "how to get a hug" in French, and it greatly boosted my reading ability.

… and now it's helping me learn Japanese too. T_T

I guess it's just a good balance. It's much more interesting than simple children's stories, and much more easy than serious wikipedia articles.

lol. and no, I didn't get a girlfriend or a hug T_T
