DeNiro in Japanese
About the Translation
The Japanese edition of DeNiro—I Am Not a Dog! preserves every element of the illustrated world, allowing the visual story to unfold exactly as it does in the original book. Naomi Wangsvick's translation fits naturally into the existing speech bubbles with simple, primarily hiragana dialogue designed for young readers. The result feels entirely at home in Japanese picture-book tradition while preserving the humor, pacing, and visual storytelling. Readers experience the same delightful panel-by-panel journey, now brought to life in Japanese.
