Japanese Short Stories & Essays For language learners

By Noboru Akuzawa

As the title suggests, this book is a collection of short stories and essays for Japanese language learners . In creating this book, I have tried to cover as many different genres of topics as possible. Also, since there are already many reading materials and Japanese language learning materials based on folktales, this book covers contemporary and everyday topics. I have tried to include short stories that are as interesting, surprising, funny, emotional, or educational as possible. In addition, I have included small illustrations to help the reader visualize the story. You can start from the beginning and read in order, or you can start with a title or topic that interests you. I hope you will enjoy reading this book. The basic structure of each chapter is as follows Sentences with furiganareading aid Sentences with English translations Vocabulary list Original Japanese textwithout reading aid Questions and answers You can use this book in any way you like, but I recommend that you first read the sentences with the furigana and check the story in your own way. For words you don't know, check the vocabulary list and read to the end first. After that, it is a good idea to check the English translation, including all the details. In addition, this book includes the original Japanese text without furigana, so if you are interested, you can try this as well. At the end of each chapter, there are some simple questions to check your understanding.
