A fun, silly little set of stories and great reading practice for the student of Japanese. It uses fairly everyday language, with only a smattering of unusual vocabulary and colloquialism, making it easy to follow. The art is simple but slick, and the misadventures of Nobita (and his well-deserved downfalls) are nice clean fun. ( )
