Personnal opinion
I’ve choose this book because i need a theme a like to commit to read a child book without loosing interest. Already try a few of them but i’m beyond absolute begginer level so it will be good to have help. Each story have a number of page very different but i think it’s manageable to make a planning (1 page a day = 25 weeks).
If we choose this book i don’t think i can take care of the tread as i’m a complete newbie here.

Pros
*Short stories
*Yokai and other stuff (i you like that theme)
*Every Kanji got Furigana
*Little or big illustration on each page, it help a lot sometimes. Plus it’s a very different style for each one.

Cons
*Not enough Kanji
