Be entertained while learning Japanese., Dec 4 2009
By Palabras - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Fly Catcher Boy (Paperback)
When Kenji rescues a stray cat one rainy night, he could not predict how this act of charity would change his life. But the cat returns Kenji's kindness in many unexpected ways, and an unbreakable bond quickly develops between the two. You will love the adventures the two of them share.
This charming tale about a boy and his unusual cat will definitely make you smile, and, thanks to the foreign words sprinkled throughout the book, you'll even learn a bit of Japanese.
