Publisher's summary

Experience late-1800’s Japan, from the perspective of someone who was actually there.

New digital edition featuring 14 beautiful chapter illustrations in an attached PDF!

A collection of true stories and childhood memories written in the 1890’s, A Japanese Boy gives listeners a rare first-hand account of Japan as it existed over 100 years ago. The era in which this book was written was a time of great upheaval, as Western culture began to assert its influence upon Japan, and author Shigemi Shiukichi provides the perspective of someone who was actually there to see these changes happen. Listeners will also learn about traditions, food, celebrations, schooling, music, dance and other elements of daily life for an ordinary boy in a small village, in Japan’s now-distant past.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.
