About this title: Learn Kanji through pictrures. Japanese written characters, or kanji, have their origin in a picture-language developed in ancient China. Over time this language evolved into stylized abstract forms that are hard to memorize. In "Kanji Pict-o-graphix," Michael Rowley offers a whole new set of contemporary visual and textual memory aids - mnemonics - that reveal the meanings of over 1,000 Japanese kanji.

"A very easy book for remembering the simplest kanji characters. You can go through the whole thing in one sitting. Unfortunately, it is too large to fit in your pocket, so you aren't likely to take it walking around with you. You miss out on all those valuable learning-on-the-spot experiences that a portable book affords. See (book:Kanji starter), which is a better book in that sense."
"This is an excellent aid in the memorization of kanji characters. Each kanji in the book is grouped by subject rather than by dictionary order, making it easy for beginners to find the kanji they're looking for. The illustrations are helpful in giving an mnemonic device to better memorize it, and each kanji is also broken down into radicals, making it easier to see its composition."
