This bilingual picture book tells a beloved Japanese folktale in both English and Japanese. It's ideal for ages 7-12, and also makes a wonderful gift for adults who love Japan or are learning Japanese. Deep in the mountains of Ashigara, a boy named Kintarō grows up with strength beyond his years - strong enough to wrestle bears, lift boulders with ease, and bend trees into bridges for his animal friends. But when a traveling warrior discovers him, Kintarō must decide whether to leave the only home he has ever known. This beautifully illustrated bilingual retelling of one of Japan's best-loved folktales follows Kintarō's journey from a fearless mountain child to Sakata no Kintoki, one of Japan's most celebrated warriors - a story that has inspired generations of children to believe that true strength is always paired with kindness. Featuring gentle watercolor and sumi ink illustrations and side-by-side English and Japanese text, this book is perfect for bedtime reading, language learning, and sharing Japan's rich storytelling tradition with children ages 7-12.
