Loved reading a classic in Japanese
This is the classic story of the "thirsty crow and the pitcher" told in a simple language with cool illustrations. The reader also comes with an audio, which is an extra asset to this fun learning process. (✿^‿^)

Even though the sentences are starting to have a bit of grammar, it mostly uses common vocabulary so you feel like you're reading something substantial. Mildly entertaining.

A fun retelling of the classic The Crow and the Pitcher
Super enjoyable retelling of the original story by Aesop, has great pictures to accompany it and feels well made for inexperienced readers while still containing what made the original special. It doesn't contain kanji for a lot of words that would usually be seen with kanji, but most words should easily be able to be picked up either way!
