      My First Japanese Kanji Book

      Learning kanji the fun and easy way!

      はじめての漢字の本

      Written by Anna Sato and Eriko Sato

       Illustrated by Anna Sato

      TUTTLE PUBLISHING

       Tokyo • Rutland, Vermont • Singapore

      To Anna’s late grandfather, Yoshio Sato

      Acknowledgments

      The authors are grateful to Anna’s grandfather, the late Yoshio Sato, and her grandmother, Etsuko Sato, in Japan, as well as the students of the Pre-College Japanese Program at the State University of New York at Stony Brook, for inspiring them to write this book for English/Japanese bilingual children and for others interested in learning basic kanji in context. Being able to talk with one’s grandparents and relatives to express love and share culture and tradition is a special life-time treasure to be cherished by one’s entire family, and ultimately becomes a life-time strength.

      The creation of this book involved an enjoyable mother-daughter collaboration through language teaching and learning. Special thanks to Anna’s cousin, Kota Motonaga, and his parents, Yoshinori and Yumiko Motonaga, for their continued and selfless help. The authors are also grateful to Anna’s art teacher, June Adinolfi, for enthusiastically and effectively guiding her to create all 36 illustrations in this book over the past four years, and to Tuttle’s editors, Bob Graham and Sandra Korinchak, and the designer, Sook Fan Loh, for their professionalism, dedication, and kindness. Last but not least, special heartfelt thanks to Yimei Zhu, Anna’s father and Eriko’s husband, for his never-ending support and for being excited about this book with us.
