    There is an internet course also for learning Romani:
    http://www.romaninet.com/course/english_course.html. Gheorghe Sarau has
    also written a textbook for learning Romani, with the language of
    instruction being Romanian: Curs de limba rromani, Editura Dacia,
    Cluj-Napoca, 2000. The book by him in the original post looks to me like
    it is actually a 4th grade reader for Roma kids, but the 4th grade reader
    we have by the same title is not by him and is from a different publisher.
    So I don't know. Sarau has put his course online, but it might only be
    accessible for account holders:
