Read the most famous Japanese fairy tale in real Japanese! Every line and every word is explained and defined. BONUS! We are also including the entire Usagi to Kame story (The Tortoise and the Hare) also with every word explained and defined.

Sound Files
Included at no extra charge are two MP3s of both stories. One is read at the normal speed and the other at a slow, easy to follow speed. You will find the link to download the MP3s on the last page.

THE STORY
Momotaro is a boy born from a peach (momo) who grows up to be a strong, brave man. Oni (ogres) are attacking the village. The villagers beg their hero, Momotaro, to purge their lands of the evil Oni. He sets off with aid from three unusual allies.

Usagi to Kame (The Tortoise and the Hare) is about... well, you know.

ABOUT THIS BOOK
This book contains several versions of both stories. First, we have the story broken down line by line with every vocabulary word defined and explained. Next, we go through major grammatical patterns found in the story. After that, read the story with no English and in natural Japanese (kanji with furigana included). Lastly, we are including a simple English translation, which should be avoided until you are sure you understand the story or find it too difficult to figure out on your own.

You may want to try to read the story either in natural Japanese first. Or if you are a beginner, it may be better to go through the vocabulary first. Any way you do it, this book offers several ways to read, listen, and learn.

FOR UPPER BEGINNERS
Momotaro is designed for those new to Japanese. We recommend learning hiragana and basic Japanese grammar first.
