I picked up this book on Japanese proverbs for my language class and it's been amazing! The blend of English and Japanese text is perfect for learners. Plus, the proverbs themselves are really insightful; I love sharing these with friends!

Great for Japanese language learners
This collection of proverbs is super handy for anyone studying Japanese. Some of the sayings are a bit tricky to translate, though. Still, I appreciate the effort in including both English and Japanese; it's a nice touch!

Arrived damaged, but content is good
Unfortunately, the book showed up with a bent cover, which was disappointing. The content inside is fascinating, filled with 200 proverbs that spark great conversations. Just wish it had arrived in better condition!

Interesting but could use more context
The book has a lot of classic sayings, which are enjoyable to read. However, I found myself wishing for more context or explanations behind some proverbs. It’s still a fun read and I enjoy teaching them to my kids!
