About this book

Cozy Japan Vol. 13: Farms, Fields & Country Days — Bold & Easy Coloring Book

Plant the rice in the flooded morning paddies, pick daikon and tomatoes in the fields, feed the hens by the red barn, rest on the farmhouse engawa porch — and end the day at the glowing village market under a goodnight moon. One whole country day in Japan, one cozy page at a time!

This thirteenth volume spends a single day on a Japanese farm: flooded paddies, irrigation channels and a tiny scarecrow in the morning, vegetable fields, orchards and greenhouses, hens, goats and hay bales around the red barn, the farmhouse kitchen, irori hearth and pickle crocks — and a farmers market, sunset fields and sleeping barns in the evening. (Vol. 12 climbed high into the mountains; this volume stays down in the working fields and farm villages.)

All 100 pictures are brand new — nothing is repeated from Vol. 1, Vol. 2, Vol. 3, Vol. 4, Vol. 5, Vol. 6, Vol. 7, Vol. 8, Vol. 9, Vol. 10, Vol. 11 or Vol. 12. Every picture is drawn with bold, thick lines and big, simple shapes — no tiny details, no stress. Even the sunset and night scenes are drawn bright on white paper, so you can color them in any colors you love. Perfect for beginners, kids, seniors, and anyone who colors to relax and unwind.

Learn Japanese while you color! Every picture shows its English name, its Japanese name, and how to pronounce it. By the last page you will know 100 farm words — tanbo, hatake, nouka, torakutaa, naya, shuukaku and more — without even trying.

Find the tiny scarecrow! One tiny scarecrow keeps appearing all through the book — guarding the young rice, among the vegetable rows, on the barn fence post, peeking from the farmhouse window, resting on the engawa porch, sleeping under the big tree, and saying goodnight under the moon. It appears on 7 pages. Can you spot it every time?
