A Masterpiece that can be read in 10 Minutes - 6th Grade

Part of the “10 Minute Stories” series that has sold over 5.2 million copies in Japan! This revised version of the popular anthology series features 13 short works from famous Japanese authors and classic world literature, carefully curated for Japanese elementary students in 6th grade. As this series is often used by teachers in mock Junior High entrance exams and lesson plans, this collection is also an excellent resource for adults preparing to take the JLPT.

To help with these goals, this revised edition features a new “Doorway to the Masterpieces” section at the end of the book with new notes meant to deepen your knowledge and understanding of the stories. This book contains: Six Japanese stories, four world classic tales, two poems, and a “Play with Words” section that lists Japanese palindromes. A 16-page quiz and reading notes section with answers at the end. Over 30 full-color and black-and-white illustrations that bring these stories to life.
