Trade Review
"It's a fun way to learn a handful of basic Japanese words, and perhaps inspire an interest in learning more." --The Children's Book Review
"I've always had an interest in learning about people and cultures, so I've collected an assortment of "My First Word" books in a variety of languages. This Japanese word book is one of the best I've seen. At first glance, the choice of going through the English alphabet to present words in Japanese seems odd, but really it's brilliant. It gives young children a familiar setting whiles introducing them to something completely new and different." --Randy-Lynn Wach, City Book Review
"This is a lovely picture book in ENGLISH but with Japanese words for each letter…There is also interesting tidbits of information about the Japanese culture that kids would enjoy." --PragmaticMom.com blog
