Work through the Japanese first!).•Download the FREE MP3s to listen while you study.The first story has the lord of the castle testing Hikoichi in a Solomon-esque question-which young lord is the true young lord? The second story shows choosing the first and most favorable isn't always best. In the end, only Hikoichi can enjoy the cherry blossoms.The third story is about a mysterious, but living umbrella. Some things are just too good to be true.We wrap things up with Hikoichi's encounter with a Tengu-a mythical creature whose straw raincoat renders its wearer invisible.While beginners to Japanese can get a lot from this, hiragana knowledge is required.Finally, we invite the reader to contact us with questions or requests for future Japanese readers.
