This is a reading textbook with the theme of friendship. The page count is just right for morning reading at school. It contains ten stories. Reading is effective for developing concentration and comprehension skills. I think it is suitable for lower elementary school students, around grades 1-3. Since furigana is written for the kanji, even preschoolers can read it. This book was given to me as a hand-me-down. It does not have a dust jacket. The cover has small scuffs and scratches. There are also creases near the corners. Please check the photos for the condition. The inside is in good condition. There are no other major damages, but I may have overlooked something. We ask that you purchase this item only if you understand that it is a used item that a child has used. It will be shipped with waterproofing and protection against bending.
