My combined textbooks and workbooks are perfect for beginners, providing all the tools to read, write, and speak Japanese! Learn all about the different alphabets and scripts, Hiragana, Katakana, and Kanji, and how to study each of them in an easy, step-by-step way.


Success with Japanese is not always about WHAT you learn but HOW you learn it along the way:

This book shows you how to write each character with perfect stroke order and how to memorize the syllable sounds with mnemonics.
