ABOUT THIS VOLUME






The kappa is one of Japan's most well-known yokai. It lives in or near rivers, loves cucumbers, and occasionally plays tricks on humans. They are not all bad, though. Kappa have been known to teach humans special knowledge such as medicine or help people in times of trouble.






FEATURES






Includes three essays or stories about the kappa






Each story is presented in three formats:
1) Sentence-by-Sentence with definition and commentary below
2) Japanese only (to test your reading ability)
3) English translation (to confirm your understanding)






The Sentence-by Sentence section of each story presents a small chunk of the Japanese with furigana over the kanji and a complete glossary of all the words; important grammatical patterns are pointed out and explained in plain English






A link to download sound files for the stories is provided (for no extra charge) on the last page of the book






Each story has a slow and normal speed recording of the Japanese read by Yumi






The download also includes a PDF version of the book and an Anki flashcard deck with all the vocabulary found in the stories. The Anki deck has sound, definitions, pitch accent diagrams, and the sentence using the word in context.






STORIES INCLUDED






① What is the Kappa?






② A Kappa Mummy






③ A Kappa Repays a Debt






WHO IS THIS FOR?






This book is designed so that both those fairly new to Japanese and those in the intermediate stages can equally find value. The ideal level, however, is for the upper beginner, somewhere around the JLPT (Japanese Language Proficiency Test) N4.
