Welcome to the しろくまカフェ Book Club! :polar_bear: Sequel Series >> The first volume of this book was originally read in the Absolute Beginner Book Club in 2019, and I thought it would be fun to do a re-read then finish the series! Shirokuma Cafe is a fun series by Aloha Higa about a group of animals mingling with humans at a cafe run by a puntastic polar bear. There are different versions of this so if you’re buying them be careful of which one you get. Originally there were 5 volumes published, which were then re-published as 4 volumes and renamed “しろくまカフェ bis”. They were then followed by a sequel series named “しろくまカフェ Today’s Special” This club will be based on the original series but will contain references to the bis version for people that are using that one. :closed_book: View this book on Natively! Original Publication (5 Volumes) Official Title: しろくまカフェ Original series. Same content as bis.
