1 out of 5 stars Why buy this book?   November 7, 2008
I purchased this book on the basis of the 15 excellent reviews it already had on Amazon as I was having difficulty learning hiragana; I was simply drawing the characters over and over. Having read a general introduction the book began with "these are the first ten characters, draw them out until you know them then do the following exercise... I didn't need a whole book to tell me that, it seemed to make the rest of the book irrelevant so why read any further?


5 out of 5 stars Simple workbook...... unbelieveable results!   July 8, 2008
 1 out of 1 found this review helpful

This has to be the best learning tool ANYONE can use when attempting to learn Hiragana. I have just started to learn Japanese and felt it important to learn both Hiragana and Katakana. Over the past week I have been using this for about an hour a day and have already attained near fluency in Hiragana.....PAINLESSLY!
Seriously I have just worked through each page and am astounded with the results! I felt it would take months of dilligent study to remember the "countless" Hiragana, but the brilliantly structured approach and clever excercises made it SO easy I just had to share my feelings. While only half way thorough the book I was SO impressed I decided to purchase both the "Let's Learn Katakana" and "Let's Learn Kanji" from the same series.
I hope this review will help anybody wondering whether to purchase this or not.... please do if you want results FAST!



5 out of 5 stars Sugoi (great) learning material   February 28, 2008
I bought this book hoping to learn hirigana over a month, but i was quickly proved wrong as the book made the process easy, fun and very quick to learn and I was finished in about 2 weeks. This book is really worth the money if you are willing to put in the time, then rewards reaped are bountiful. Everything from stroke order to what kind of stroke is shown making the process easier to follow rather than throwing you into the deep end with no help. I have also bought the katakana version and attempting to learn that too.
I really do recommend any budding person trying to learn the Japanese language to start with hirigana using this book. I hope you enjoy the book as much as I have.



5 out of 5 stars The Best Book I've Come Across For Learning Hiragana   January 2, 2008
 1 out of 1 found this review helpful

This has to be by far the best book that I have found for learning to read and write Hiragana. Many other books out there just show charts and guides - but they don't teach it to you, or have special exercises laid out.
With this book and as little as 20 minutes a day, I have been able to go from being able to read absolutely no Hiragana, to virtually anything now written in Hiragana in just a week and a half.
I would recommend this book wholeheartedly to anyone wishing to learn Hiragana as you can learn it confidently and competatively, solely with this book.
To anyone who buys this book I hope you find as useful as I have,
Ganbatte!

I've always wanted to learn Japanese, not just speaking, but writing as well. I finished this book a little while ago, and just recently finished the Katakana workbook too. It's put me at a great advantage for college!
I would seriously recommend this book to anyone
