Start speaking, reading and writing Japanese today with the most exciting new introduction to the Japanese language! Beginning Japanese is a Japanese self-study book with companion audio recordings, a series website, and a manga-style story that follows Kiara—an American exchange student who lives in Japan and wants to learn Japanese. With the help of her Japanese friends and the time-traveling "tomo tanuki" raccoon dog, Kiara learns to speak, read, and write Japanese kanji and kana while she visits famous people and places in Japanese history.
Written by experienced high-school Japanese teachers, this Japanese language book will show you correct pronunciations; how to read and write hiragana, katakana, and 151 basic kanji; and understand conversational Japanese, all through an exciting storyline and multimedia materials available for free online.
Key features of this program:
- An engaging manga-style illustrated story—including a time-travel adventure which unfolds as learners advance, adding motivation to learn Japanese
- Authentic written, visual, and oral materials embedded seamlessly throughout
- Kanji is taught beginning with Chapter 1—and together with current vocabulary rather than separately
- Technology is used extensively for practical tasks
- A dedicated website provides additional content and updates
- Content is aligned with the ACTFL National Standards
- Native Japanese language speakers
- Pronunciation guides
- Accompanying dialogues
- New word lists
- Fun songs

- Extensive printable exercises
- Online games and activities
- Additional information and updates

Whether you're learning Japanese for fun, preparing for a Japanese proficiency exam, or want to achieve AP- or IB-level competency, Beginning Japanese is your key to becoming a confident Japanese-speaker.
