I’ve been playing the Electone since I was six, mainly performing Disney music, anime songs, and music from dramas and films. I post performance videos on YouTube and social media, and I also give concerts. Building on my Electone experience, I took up synthesizer and piano during my student years and performed at school-sponsored events. As a writer, I’ve covered not only music-related topics but a wide range of genres, so I hope to draw on my experience to deliver articles that make readers think, “I want to try that!” or “I want to listen to that!”

A first school, a new class, new friends.

I’d like to introduce the picture book “Because I’m Going to Be a First Grader,” which I want to read aloud to children when they’re the oldest in kindergarten.

Before starting elementary school, there are all kinds of preparations: going to the school readiness health check, choosing and buying a school bag (randoseru), writing your name on each of your belongings, and attending the entrance ceremony.

This picture book portrays those scenes of getting ready to become an elementary school student.

Even if someone tells you, “You’re going to be an elementary schooler,” it can be hard to really picture it… That’s exactly when this book is worth reading.

I’m sure it will nurture excitement and a positive feeling about becoming a first grader.
