This is a collection of Japanese proverbs and sayings compiled by the poet Mikhail Yasnov. For each proverb, Mikhail Davidovich came up with a poem that reveals or complements its essence.
Proverbs and sayings are a mirror of folk wisdom and national culture. The unique culture of Japan has been formed for thousands of years in isolation from the rest of the world - that is why the Japanese are accustomed to living in harmony and agreement with nature, not to fuss in vain and in any trials to rely only on their own strength.
The collection includes proverbs about friendship and love, life and nature. Young readers will learn what makes each person good for themselves, who a drop will help, and why you should hurry with something good, and there is no such thing as too much politeness.
