    I love this book
  

*by S***Z on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on March 17, 2012*

I am very fresh and new to learning Japanese, so I didn't really know what books to get on learning Japanese script. I looked on Amazon and to be honest, I was looking something that would do the job, be fun and cheap. Ha ha ha, a tall order I know. if you study languages, you know that the resources are not cheap and getting more and more expensive by the year. I was reluctant to buy these books because of the strange looking characters on the cover but I figured it couldn't be that bad. Turns out, I was right! I love these books! I bought both the Hiragana and the Katakana books and they were not that expensive. Its not perfect but it will do. The positives: you learn the Hiragana in the order they were meant, they teach you not only how to write the letter but also you learn lots of vocabulary, about 300+ words along with the Hiragana and another cool thing, is that they teach you not only to write it horizontally but *vertically* as well, which I love! I also really love the flash cards in the back. I am a little bit slower in learning and while some are learning 10 characters a day, because of being a busy mom, I am only learning to write and pronounce 5 or 6 characters at a time. Plus, I am not in any rush; I am fascinated with and love languages, so learning the characters and speaking as quickly as possible is not my goal. Acquiring language is a lifetime goal that will never be mastered; only enjoyed and spoken well.The negatives of this book is that there is very little practice spaces for the characters, even to copy pages to write them. I wish each character was a bit larger on the page; and I wish there were some exercises to help cement the letters more in your head. Even so, the book is good, it does the job and you learn some vocabulary to boot. I am not sorry for the purchase and would buy it again.

    Flashcards are really great, but the workbook wasn't the best I've encountered...
  

*by T***I on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on January 8, 2020*

If you need flashcards, and a simple workbook, this is a good option. I felt that compared to another workbook, this one wasn't as detailed and helpful for learning the characters. But I absolutely love the perforated flashcards as an additional learning tool, and I use them each day that I'm learning.Cons: - Workbook doesn't have pronunciation information for each character. It has an introduction section that lists them, but showing clear "sounds like 'ee' as in sleep" is so important for new learners, and helps them create mental connections to the characters helping memorization. - Not as focused on quizzing/structured reviewA recommended workbook that is a great supplement to this would be "Learning Japanese Hiragana and Katakana: A Workbook for Self-Study" which you can find here: https://www.amazon.com/Learning-Japanese-Hiragana-Katakana-Self-Study/dp/4805312270/That workbook has a bit more detailed information for each character that I really found helpful. Adding these two resource together has been really good for my introductory learning the kanas.
