[Michlib-l] Japanese Children's books?

[Steven Kish]

You may wish to also check with the Farmington Community Library. It has
been a few years since I last worked there, but they had a huge foreign
language section, serving several languages (including Japanese).

I just searched their catalogue and here is what I found under Children's
international language collection -- Japanese:

https://polpac.farmlib.org/search/searchresults.aspx?ctx=3.1033.0.0.1&type=Browse&term=Children%27s%20international%20language%20collection%20--%20Japanese&by=SU&sort=RELEVANCE&limit=TOM=*&query=MSH=%2744938%27&page=0&searchid=2

Cheers,

Steven
