Bilingual Picture Book + Coloring Pics.
Where is Amy the dragon lady? She is missing. Let's find her! The search for her in different places is a delightful read-aloud. Is she helping a princess? Or a brave knight? Maybe she just flew away for some reason. Maybe dragons cannot fly at all?

Two Versions Of Japanese:
This book is for bilingual language learning. It is edited in two versions. Considerations in the editing are following differences between English and Japanese grammar.Pronouns (I, you, he, she, me, him, her, etc.) are often dropped in the subject and/or object as well as in the possessive form in Japanese.There are different verb forms: polite, simple, dictionary form, etc., besides verb conjugations.Finally, there are sentence-ending particles to convey nuances.
In the text, the first line in bold letters uses children's language, which is not generally taught in Japanese learning books. The second line in smaller letters includes pronouns and uses a polite form which is typically taught in Japanese language textbooks.
For all kids learning English or Japanese as a second language.
