In the 32-page picture book "Why Max "Meows" and Risa "Nyaas"?, Max, an American boy, is intrigued when he hears Risa, a Japanese girl in his class, mimic a cat's sound not as a "meow," but as a "nyaa." This innocent curiosity spirals into an engaging journey, as the two discover that animals might just "speak" different languages in different parts of the world. Through their exploration, children are subtly introduced to the vast tapestry of global cultures, wrapped in the comforting familiarity of their favorite animals.

Join Max as he unravels the mystery of why animals speak differently in Japan, and then finds himself in the wild world of wacky

onomatopoeias.

Max's ordinary day takes an extraordinary turn when he and his friend Risa stumble upon a cage with a mouse in their classroom. They realize

something peculiar - they hear animal sounds differently. Why does a mouse go "chu-chu"or a crow cry "kaa-kaa"? Max and his friend Risa embark

on a mission to uncover the truth! Are dogs barking "wan-wan"? Is it "meow-meow" or "nyaa-nyaa" for a cat?

With vivid illustrations and an engaging storyline, get ready to giggle as Max and Risa reveal the hilarious differences between English and

Japanese animal sounds. Will Max and Risa ever agree on the horse's sound? Grab your detective hat and join them on their whimsical journey to find out in this heartwarming tale of friendship, curiosity, and the magic of language.
