Regular readers of Accessible Japan’s blog are familiar with author Suzanne Kamata. Suzanne is a long-time resident of Japan and has a daughter with multiple disabilities.  She is the author of the YA novels Gadget Girl: The Art of Being Invisible and Screaming Divas.

Her latest publication, A Girls’ Guide to the Islands, documents a trip she took with her daughter around Japan’s Inland Sea – covering everything from art exhibits on small islands to wheelchair accessibility. In our review of the book, reviewer Janice G. said:

I would highly recommend this book for the information on art in Japan, some unique places to visit in Japan, and for a peek into the thoughts of a parent of a child with special needs, but overwhelmingly because of its writing style that beautifully uses prose as an artist would use brush strokes, both wide and narrow, to expose a little of her and her daughter’s life in Japan.

Suzanne has agreed to give one autographed copy away for free!  Use the entry form below to enter to win!  The more entry types you complete, the better your chances of winning.
