Every Japanese American needs to own this book!,
By A Customer
This review is from: Nikkei Donburi: A Japanese American Cultural Survival Guide (Paperback)
As a Yonsei who was brought up in a predominantly white neighborhood, I never had a chance to learn much about my heritage. This book is perfect! It answers a lot of questions my parents never could. I am getting copies for all my sisters, brother, and cousins. This is a great resource book!

This review is from: Nikkei Donburi: A Japanese American Cultural Survival Guide (Paperback)
This is a great resource for children to learn about Japanese American culture and traditions. Note that I write Japanese AMERICAN, as this book focuses on how people of Japanese descent live in the US (and probably Canada, too). It also teaches children Japanese American values, like never wasting anything, respect for elders, reserve, etc. Parents and grandparents might also like this book, especially to share with children. For Japanese Americans who live outside of large Japanese communities, it helps to explain who you are and why you do things the way you do.
