The Usborne First Thousand Words in Japanese serves as a comprehensive illustrated vocabulary-buider for ages 5+, teaching 1000 new Japanese words.
Each object in the book is clearly labelled with its Japanese name written in kana, the Japanese syllabic signs often used for beginners, along with a transliteration in Roman letters.
The book includes a short introduction to kana with a simple pronunciation guide and an alphabetical Japanese / English list of all the words used is provided at the end of the book.
Children will love looking through each double page spread in search of the well-renowned 'yellow duck' ™.
