The book is very interesting and easy to read. There are lots of pictures of Japanese traditional food which is made of Bean. The pictures show how tofu and some Japanese food like Nado and Miso are made. It is a nice book to learn about Japanese food culture. I really recommend it

The story is very moving. Hachi is a dog of a college professor. They live together. After the professor died, Hachi still believes he was still alive and continued the daily routine for 10 years. The story is very moving and worth reading.
この本は ラーさんのせいかつについて 書きました。ラーさんは友だちがありませんが、暇じゃないです。毎日音がきを聞きますから。本の中で、たくさんえがあります。とてもかわいいです。ちょっとむずかしいたんごがありますが、ストーリはかんたんです。
The book has lots of Katakana, most of which are the name of songs and singers. So I think it is good path to practice Katakana through reading. The drawings are really interesting and creative. Really recommend this book. ロイ-音楽が好きです
この本は大豆について紹介して 面白いと思います。日本人は大豆にたくさん食べ物を作ります。そして、as it is used in many cultural practices, I get to know more about Japanese traditional culture. 本の中で いろいろ食べ物の写真があったから、読むのが難しくないと思います。
いい漢字の練習です。日本語一年生は読んだほうがいいと思います。
この本はみじかくてやさしいでした。ストリもかわいくて、読む時、たのしかったです。りょうさんがかわいそうです! He’s stuck with a cast, which probably means no patrol duty for him for quite a while. I can relate to being unable to resist the children though.
この本はとてもかんたんたから日本語一年生にもぜんぜんむずかしくないと思います。時間があまりない時でも読むのができますよ！だからみんなにおすすめです！！
一人女の子はタクシーで乗ります。あの子はもう死ねていました。
A girl takes a ride in a taxi and later turns out to be a ghost. She tricks the taxi driver into dropping her off at her house and then runs inside without paying. the driver waits outside for her to come back and pay him but she never does. He eventually knocks on the door only to find out that the girl had died in a bicycle accident.
This book is accessible to a Japanese 111 student if not a Japanese 110 student. It takes a bit of intuition to piece together some of the story but it was certainly original.
このストーリーはとても面白いです。みどりのぶたわぴんくいろになります。ドローイングは可愛くて、きれいです。
I recommend this book because it has such beautiful drawings and nice story plot. I also learned new vocabularies from this story. However, I feel like the story could be extended a little bit to focus on how the green pig identifies itself. But overall, this book is worth reading and I like it very much.
This book is really interesting that the girl in the story meets herself! I love this story. I also love the elaborated drawings of the book.
I really recommend this book to JPN 110 and 111 students to read this. There exists some new kanjis but I believe students can understand them according to the context. This book also helps to get familiar with some kanjis.
この本は日本の旅行をしょうについて書きます。おもしろくて、いろいろなしゃしんを見ました。私は日本が大好きっだから、きれいなしゃしんを見て、ぶんかをならって、たのしかったです。ぶんぽは簡単ですが、かんじがたくさんあったから、ちょっとむずかしいですね。
I really enjoyed reading this book, because the photos are all very beautiful and I love Japanese scenery and food. I also got to learn some cultural features of Japan. Because it’s a level 0 book, the grammar are very easy, but I find it hard to understand all the kanjis, especially the names of the places mentioned. Overall, I recommend it to 日本語一年生 and people who are good at kanji.
この本はおもしろいと思います。エミさんとニナさんゆかたを買 ってお ぼんおどりに行きました。かんじとたん語がかんたんです。I really loved the art style, its simple and cute. There were a couple of words that I could not recognize but its still understandable through context. There were also some unfamiliar kanji but they were accompanied by the hiragana. Overall, I highly recommend to level 0 readers.
