[The power of books, the power of life]
Shanti International Volunteer Association Cooperation Project

"The Power of Books for the Power of Life"

Through books, from familiar places
Let's look at the world.

Based on such a concept
With the cooperation of two people from Myanmar living in Nishiokoppe Village, we Implementation the creation of a Picture Book to be delivered to Myanmar.

What kind of country is Myanmar?
What kind of situation are we in now?

At first, I learned about Myanmar.
After that, we read Picture books in Japanese and Burmese.

After enjoying the difference in pronunciation between Burmese and Japanese
Finally, I will make a Picture book in translation.

While looking at the comparison table of the Burmese language
Cut and paste the text stickers translated into Burmese on all pages, and repeat.

Finally, I was taught how to write my name in Burmese.

If there are two people who can speak Burmese
You can ask questions when you don't know which page to put the sticker on, and you can learn things that you can't know just by reading the documents, such as the stroke order of the letters.

Thanks to the two of you, I learned more Burmese.
I feel like I was able to feel close to them.

The translated picture book I made on this day will arrive in Myanmar around next summer.

I wonder what Myanmar will be like at that time.
I wondered what I was doing at that time
With this in mind, I entrusted the Picture book to the Shanti International Volunteer Association.
