OPINION.
The illustration (shown ATOP) in the book is like “Japanese Manga”. I felt the comic-book & manga aspect helped communicate the learning of the language. Charles Tuttle Publishing has over six-thousand (6,000) Asian book titles, so giving their books an Asian/Japanese appearance has worked for them in publishing.
