"Middle School Entrance Exams Without Sacrificing Elementary School Life" by Kazuto and Yuka Price: ¥1760 I've read it once, but I've kept it covered, so the contents are in good condition. The cover has some minor scratches from storage. This book offers a lifeline and encouragement to parents and children who give up on many things for middle school entrance exams, and those who give up on the exams themselves because of the difficulty of attending cram school. It's a memoir of a parent and child who passed a highly competitive national middle school while continuing to play baseball and violin until the 6th grade.
