Kid's Guide to Anime & Manga: Thoughts
A Kid's Guide to Anime & Manga: Exploring the History of Japanese Animation and Comics by Samuel Sattin, with Patrick Macias (Contributor), and Illustrated by, utomaru
This book is recent, from 2023. It is full of information that hardcore fans would find interesting. For someone, like myself, who is simply dipping his toes into the world of Anime and Manga, it is overwhelming. That does not mean that it is not useful, but I suggest that you focus on areas that interest you.
For instance, words, and their history fascinate me. Etymology is the study of the origin of words. It includes the way word meanings have changed over time.

Lots of great information for young adult fans of anime and manga. The authors give concise historic context (just enough), with interviews of current popular anime authors and illustrators. For kids interested in becoming animators, these interviews offer tidbits of advice for future anime creators. Well designed, the book has a really appealing cover and while it's single-colored (pink!) illustrations of animated art, each double-page spread is presented in visual appeal. Many great suggested "reads" and "views" also.

I ran out of time to read this the whole way through. But I know that most of my students 3rd grade and up would adore this book! It defines anime/manga, talks about the history, cosplay, and conventions. Such an awesome resource for one of the most popular topics among school agers! Bonus-fun quizzes and illustrations

Did really read every word, but looked at each page and will be reading some sections in greater depth.
Simple language, well explained, knowledgeable and well researched. -
This was a very cute primer on anime, manga, and its intersection within Japanese culture. The art was adorable and inclusive throughout the chapters. Overall, this is a great book for those looking for a Christmas gift or stocking stuffer for the kids in their lives!
Notes: I received a free copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.
