This easy-to-carry pocketbook introduces around 100 kanji and 25 compound words in a fun and easy-to-remember way. Each kanji or compound word has a vivid illustration based on the original Chinese pictographs, English translations, and an English-language haiku.

The author Bret Mayer lives and works as a Kanji Instructor in Hamamatsu, Shizuoka, Japan. In Autumn 2012, Mayer became the first foreigner to pass the highest level of the Japan Kanji Aptitude Test, completing every level the testing foundation has to offer. In the spring of 2013, Mayer became a licensed Kanji Instructor as recognized by Ritsumeikan University. Currently, he teaches kanji to both Japanese and foreigners regularly on radio, TV programs, and online. His previously published books have been a massive hit with a wide range of Japanese learners – and this new offering has already been making waves.
