The Boy of the Three-Year Nap by Dianne Snyder

What a wonderful book! You are given small, but great, glimpses into Japanese culture. As I read this story to my kids my oldest daughter was asking me questions about the culture such as wearing kimonos and what a samurai was. What a great teachable moment. The story itself was also quite entertaining, since I'm sure we all know someone with the tendency for laziness. For a minute there I thought Taro's mother might be a bit of a nemesis, but I was thankfully corrected with the delightful ending.
