Manga Moods

By Saori Takarai

Kindle Edition

Manga Moods
List Price: $7.99*
*(As of 10:18 Pacific 6 Sep 2010 More Info)


Click Here
Product Description:
The adorable characters from Manga University's best-selling "Manga Moods" leap off the printed page and onto the screens of your Kindle or Kindle-enabled device! It's an art class and a language lesson all rolled into one. And in full color!

A raised eyebrow, a curled lip, a wink of the eye. All it takes is a clever stroke of the G-pen to instantly change a manga character’s mood from one extreme to the other: glad to sad, sneaky to shy, angry to embarrassed. In "Manga Moods: 40 Faces + 80 Phrases", Saori Takarai presents a series of full-color drawings to show just how these transformations take place.

In addition, each of the facial expressions is labeled with the English and Japanese words for the mood being, along with Japanese conversational phrases and their translations. The phrases are romanized for easy learning, and at the back of the book you’ll find handy charts of the hiragana phonetic alphabet that you can use to transcribe the romanized words into authentic Japanese writing.

"Much more than a collection of cute characters, "Manga Moods" provides you a fresh new way of looking — and laughing — at life.

Product Description:
Get ready to look at books in a whole new way! These unique projects consist of far more than paper stitched between cardboard covers. Instead, they showcase a host of fabulous features and magically unfold like a map, contain cards that slip into pockets, include pop-ups perfect for celebrating all types of occasions, and tell stories on a scroll. There's even one that unrolls like a movie. And kids will really enjoy choosing the style that's just right for what they want to say and do--so their message will come through loud and clear. Gwen Diehn, whose work critics have called "remarkably creative and inspiring"* and "outstanding,"** makes crafting easy with her superb explanations of tools and techniques.

"What is wonderful about this title is the author's ability to interest and convince readers that they, too, can become creators....Great ideas for inspiring projects."--School Library Journal
