This is the final week, so if youโve read this far, congratulations on finishing a whole book in Japanese!
Where to go next? ![]()
If you would like to read manga, you can read along with the next book club, A Sign of Affection.
If you want to read a different manga at your own pace, you could read from previous ABBC picks. Some possibilities:
- ใกใใใชๆฃฎใฎใชใชใซใใกใใ - Widely lauded as the easiest manga that the ABBC has ever read.

- ๅฏๆใใ ใใใใชใๅผๅฎใใ - An upgrade pick thatโs a little more difficult than Ookami-chan

- ใฌใณใฟใซใใซใใกใใ - An easy manga with more serious themes, and the series is only 4 volumes long. A great opportunity to finish your first manga series in Japanese!

If you would like to read more prose, the ABBC has read four second grade readers from the same series. The second grade series will include more kanji than this pick, which was a first grade reader.

Additionally, I would highly recommend checking out Satori Reader. If you read all the way through this book, Satori Reader should be a great next step for improving your reading comprehension.
If you found this read to be too easy, then you may want to take your reading to the next step with childrenโs novels.
