Biographies of Great Japanese Figures [5 Volumes] [DIGITAL DOWNLOAD]

OUR NEWEST DIGITAL BUNDLE

For Beginners to Intermediates

Each biography contains two versions of the essay. First, read a simpler version with mostly JLPT N5-N4 beginner-level vocabulary and grammar. Then, tackle the intermediate version which covers basically same information but longer and with more difficult grammar and vocabulary.

WHAT'S INCLUDED?

Some of these biographies were first published in our Makoto Magazine (click here to learn about becoming a Makoto member), but we have greatly edited and expanded those essays. In addition, each book includes a shorter beginner-level version of the essay. Review the vocabulary and grammar notes, read the beginner-level essay, and then tackle the full intermediate essay.

We are launching with four full eBooks but will soon add book #5.
