Dan is a typical American fifth grader, who travels to Japan to live with a Japanese family as an exchange student. He loves to write and doodle in his diary, and kids will love reading about all the adventures he had while he was in Japan, told in his own words. With the help of his Japanese foster brother and sister, Daisuke and Mari, Dan experiences life in a traditional Japanese village, tries new foods, and gives his readers the inside scoop on Japanese school life.

Reviews
There's a lot covered here, but it's all presented at a level that's rather accessible for both those with no knowledge of Japan and for a younger audience that doesn't want to (or can't) pour through dry guidebooks. [...] Rebecca Otowa truly knows her subject -- having lived in Japan for 30 years and raised children and grandchildren here, she has a good feel for what will interest her younger readers. -- Uncovering Japan blog, My Awesome Japan Adventure is lush with specific, intriguing details about the Japanese culture and the lives of Japanese children and families. It's the voice, though, that will win kids over. Otowa smartly chose to write about Japanese culture, using the point of view of Dan, who, at the end of the book, vows to come back to Japan. -- The Children's Book Review, "There's a lot covered here but it's all presented at a level that's rather accessible for both those with no knowledge of Japan and for a younger audience that doesn't want to (or can't) pour through dry guidebooks.
