3.0 out of 5 stars
lot of information, wish they included MP3
This book has around 3 or 4 idioms per page in japanese and english with explanations and examples. Overall good, but book would have benefited from some illustrations and an MP3 track to make it stand out.

This is quite a good book for those who would like to study or entretain themselves with japanese proverbs. Its organization (alfabetic order) lets you quickly find any kotowaza you need regardless the subject. Also the fact that it comes with hiragana and kanji gives even a richer information for those who appreciate japanese culture.
Worth the money.
