This true account of a trip to Japan was penned and illustrated by professional animator Aimee Major-Steinberger. Her cute, Manga style illustrations are annotated with notes about the amazing things she did and saw when she took a trip to Japan with her two best friends.
There's lots of humour and great art in this book, but the main appeal is the quirky inside information that readers will get about travel and life in Japan. Aimee takes us on a whirlwind tour of Japanese temples, art, fashion and shopping (!) and her cartoons give you a perfect sense of what it's like to travel as a visible minority in this amazing country.
Great for older teens, this book will appeal to both boys and girls who are interested in manga, travel, or a career in art. What's not to like!
