Making Sense of Japanese: What the Textbooks Don't Tell You
The Quick and Dirty Guide to Learning Languages FastIt’s here. And it can be yours to fall in love with right now. Today. It’s a member of the illustrious line of AJATT products, and it’s called My First Japanese Storybook. Or, as we Japanese like to call it:
マイファースト初めてのジャパニーズ絵本。
Manipulatively-Worded Promise
- “My First Japanese Storybook” might make you thin, pretty, happy, safe and popular insofar as there is a nonzero hypothetical probability that…OK, no it won’t. But…in theory, what if it did? No? No…
What the…?
OK, seriously though — here’s the deal. It’s:
- An illustrated storybook, much like the kind you so enjoyed as a child, back when everything was safe and happy and…stuff.
- 24+ pages
- Bilingual (Japanese text + English translation)
- Illustrations on every page
- In PDF format (so, an electronic book), with
- Furigana on all kanji (yeah, baby)
- A sentence flashcard pack for use with an SRS (a lot like “MFSP”, with even cooler formatting), containing phrases from and inspired by the book.
- MP3 audio recording of its content (it’s like having your virtual mommy read aloud to you!)
Who The…?
My First Japanese Storybook is intended for anyone at any level of Japanese, from egg to caterpillar to butterfly. As long as you’ve gone through Remembering the Kanji and know your kana, then you, too can read and enjoy the book — thanks in no small part to the ruggedly handsome support materials (translation, SRS deck).
I Want Mine! Gimme One!
And you can have one.
My First Japanese Storybook: $21.95
Buy It. Try It. No Likey? No Payey!
Let me be Khatzumoto with you: I don’t know what I’m doing. I’m still new at this product-making stuff. Maybe you’ll like the storybook, maybe you won’t. So, as with all its predecessor products, My First Japanese Storybook comes with a 100%, no-questions-asked refund guarantee. If you don’t like it, just email qrg at ajatt dot com. One word: “refund”, will suffice -– you don’t need to give a reason. You’ll get your money back, and you can keep the storybook for free. That’s just how we roll up in here at “the ‘JATT”.
May I See A Sample First?
Just buy it. And if you don’t like it, ask for a refund. Buy it. Try it. No likey? No payey. That’s part of the point of the refund policy — it allows you to buy with impunity, and me to sell without guilt. No buyer wants to be saddled with a product they don’t like, right? And this seller doesn’t want to give you one, either. Hence the very simple and open refund policy.
Your happiness matters more to me than rapidly devaluing dollars, 
so…use the refund policy. There are other AJATT products already out there, and there will be even more in the future — you only need pay for the ones that you do like.
Rather than try to figure out whether you’re going to like the product before the fact, you can make that decision after you buy it and use the real thing. The real thing is the sample. AJATT readers — that’s you — are a smart, good-looking and honest bunch, so…don’t worry…I trust you 
. Go on…
Khatz, you need to stop the refund thing – it makes it too easy for people to get your stuff for free because they’re pretending to be unsatisfied with it. Not a smart business move on your side of things, IMHO.

マイファースト初めてのジャパニーズ絵本 -> it’s great, it’s fun and the author is shameless crazy (I hope he will appreciate). Pictures were probably done by a grown up child called Khatzumoto. Voices are good.
You won’t find another great crazy japanese book like this one. You will like it if you like the AJATT fun. As always when a book is good, it’s too short.
Khatzumoto : next time could you deliver also a spreadsheet for SRS items?

hmmm might just buy this to support this site. Without AJATT and this forum site
forum.koohii.com/ I wouldn’t have been learning Japanese effectively and enjoying it as well.
Also on a side note. I subtitled a scene from the bleach anime, in full Japanese. Hope everyone likes this

(I also posted the subtitles in the video description so if anyone wants to srs them, you can do so)

[...] AJATT had a wonderful habit of doing this for its previous customers, with a % discount for previous purchases, including this one. If you pre-ordered the Japanese Story Book, you’d get a generous 30% discount. Unfortunately, I was busy and missed the pre-order window. My fault. But since I’ve been such a nice customer, I figured I would email mister Khatzumoto and ask if there was a discount for previous customers who missed the pre-order window. I still have not received a reply. [...]

That is a really interesting review on the product, Jaybot. I wonder what exactly do people want in a book? I would be really interested to see Khatz put a poll up with miscellaneous options and to see the spread of those options. Then again, I just saw Stephen Colbert’s pollster episode last night, so many I just want to see a poll on something I am interested in
