Two of three planned books have been published to date. The collective series teaches basic Japanese through a patents-pending "Triple Bubble" method that incorporates reading, writing and pronunciation guidance in a series of interconnected bubbles. The first book, "Jimi's Book of Japanese: A Motivating Method to Learn Japanese (Hiragana)" (ISBN 0972324704; ISBN 978-0972324700) teaches readers 46 basic Japanese Hiragana syllabary with more than 250 essential Japanese vocabulary.

Both books contain interactive exercises to improve basic Japanese comprehension.

The books are aimed at a broader audience in North America and at a grade school audience in the rest of the world.
