Japan Museum & Discovery Picture Book

About this book

A whole discovery day at the museum — in Japanese! From the entrance ticket to the giant long-neck dinosaur skeleton, fossils and amber, animals of the world, the great whale hanging over the sea hall, the planetarium's stars and a rocket, bubbling science play, clay pots and samurai helmets from old-time Japan, the touch-and-try corner, and a treasure from the museum shop: 500 words, each with a picture, kana, romaji and English, in 10 chapters of 50. Wonder, never fear — the bones are stone puzzles of long ago, and good museum manners (quiet voices, walking feet, eyes for looking) are part of the fun. Includes two play-along games: the Explorer Game and the Quiet Dinosaur Game. Scan the QR code for free online audio of all 500 words — Japanese and English.
