Japanese in MangaLand: Workbook 2 (Japanese in MangaLand Series)

The Japanese in MangaLand series has been embraced by Japanese teachers and learners everywhere for its innovative and entertaining blend of solid language instruction and pop culture. Now comes the Japanese in MangaLand Workbook 2, the perfect way for students who have moved beyond the basics to practice and assimilate what they've learned in the textbooks.

Designed to complement the second volume in the series, the exercises in this Workbook are more challenging than those in Workbook 1. Each section offers dozens of exercises and activities covering reading comprehension, vocabulary, grammar, and kanji. In addition, the book gives students practice writing hiragana, katakana, and kanji, and optimizes the vocabulary and grammar that was taught in the texts.

A special feature is the 36-page manga story created especially for this volume. Students can read and enjoy the manga after studying each lesson. And to further enhance the authenticity of the learning experience, the Workbook is read the "Japanese way," -- from back to front and from right to left.
