I wonder if there is literature available that is bilingual. It would also be good if there would be a third version in Hiragana/Katagana or romanji. Do you have any hints?
Kind regards

There is no way you will be able to understand Japanese literature of any kind if you're a beginner. You would be better served to read a textbook and very simple children's books.
