I Live in Tokyo

32 pp. | Houghton | September, 2001 | Trade ISBN 0-618-07702-2 $$16.00
(1) K-3 Seven-year-old narrator Mimiko takes readers on a month-by-month tour of contemporary Tokyo, briefly describing one or two festivals, customs, or facets of life each month. Colorful illustrations accompany the text, which remains consistently childlike throughout, focusing on the stuff of daily life--a kid's daily life. The book crams numerous details into a small space in a compact and attractive manner.
