A great gift idea for the 日本語学生.
A book of 日本物語 (にほんものがたり) - Japanese Stories or fairy tales
Each story is in 日本語 with the ひらがな over top the 漢字 the first time it appears and challenges you to remember how to read it when it appears again. Plus each 物語 has a vocabulary reference to study and learn new words and phrases that appear chronologically in the 物語, and the English version for maximum comprehension.
One of the other reasons I like this book it because it includes one of my favorite 日本物語, the 雪女 (ゆきおんな) - Snow Woman, and other interesting Japanese fairy tales that 子供 learn growing up.
The also comes with a CD of the 物語 being read to you, which you can play while you read along or play as a nice bedtime story as you fall asleep.
This copy was from the 図書館 which I always recommend checking out books before you buy to make sure it has the type of learning material and level you are looking for, plus it also saves you money!
Yet after reading this, I would put this on my buy list. I really enjoyed the 物語, the illustrations, the amount of 言葉 and 文法 was 素晴らしい plus the CD helped work on my listening skills.
If you have used this or think it is something you want, let us know in the comments below. And I hope you receive this gift for the holidays!
乾杯!
