Learning is Fun

This is an excellent book for teaching a young child about the Japanese culture. It teaches them to count to ten in Japanese while giving very good explanations of the culture and country of Japan. I like this book a lot and my very young daughter enjoys the short "stories" and the illustrations. This book is educational while being enjoyable and easy to understand.

Great book on color, for kids and adults!

It is very pared down, and very basic (obviously because it is for children) but for anyone learning about the varied use of color in different cultures, these books are the best! I wish it was linked to the other books (Colors of Mexico, etc.) better, I didn't even know it was a series at first. But I came back for more! There are a lot of complicated books about color usage, so it is refreshing to have a simple format like this. If I had children I'd buy them the whole set, and write to the publisher asking for all the countries they didn't include.
