Very Cute!
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 16 years ago
This book is absolutely adorable. As mentioned in another review, it is not manga in the traditional sense -a comic-book story. Rather, it is a series of adorable pictures featuring sisters accompanied by an English phrase and its Japanese equivalent. It follows along the lines of another book by Saori Takarai, "Manga Moods" in that its primary purpose is to present Japanese in a fun way for those studying the language. And while it is not a study guide, it does present good examples of certain grammar patterns and can be used to expand vocabulary. I really love this book for both its art and Japanese, and I think it is well worth the 10 dollars you'll spend. It would make a great gift for a sister who likes manga or manga-style art, or, it will make very cute and somewhat useful addition to the book-self of a Japanese student like myself.
