Overview

Your child's first Japanese book - real Japanese script, said out loud with total confidence.

My Very First Little Japanese Book(TM) is a gentle, beautifully illustrated first reader that lets parents and children learn Japanese together - even if you've never spoken a word of it. Under every line, the Pierce Pronunciation System(TM) re-spells each word the way it actually sounds. No phonetic symbols. No guesswork. If you can read this sentence, you can read Japanese aloud tonight.

Every single line of the book appears four ways - the Japanese text, a friendly say-it line for English speakers, the English translation, and a say-it line for the other direction - so the book teaches in both directions at once.

How it works: つきが みえます。 tsoo-kee-gah mee-eh-mahss. I see the moon.

Every line appears in authentic Japanese script with a friendly romaji say-it line beneath - and because Japanese flows with a smooth, even rhythm, there are no stress marks to worry about. The reverse side writes English in katakana, exactly the way Japanese children really learn English.
