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.
