The classic bi-lingual Japanese/English word book, illustrated by Stephen Cartwright.

A classic bilingual English/Japanese word book illustrated with busy scenes and labelled pictures to help children learn key Japanese vocabulary. Next to each picture, the Japanese word is written in kana, the Japanese syllabic signs often used for beginners, along with a transliteration in Roman letters. Includes a short introduction to kana with a simple pronunciation guide and an English/Japanese list of all the words in the book. Readers can hear how to pronounce all the words by listening to a native speaker on the Usborne Quicklinks website.
