We produced a picture book in-house in 2022!
Read it LOUD! offers English reading lessons using picture books, and offers both face-to-face lessons in Tokyo and online lessons. Up until now, we have been using English picture books, but since we produced our own picture books in 2022, we have been developing many classes centered around those books.
In the future, I would like to work with wonderful artists and writers from around the world to create wonderful picture books that tickle children's sensibilities. If you are interested in creating a book together, we look forward to your application!
