Bangurusu Sensei Chikoku Chikoku

（Late for School! Japanese Translation)

Written by Stephanie Calmenson
Translated by Noriko Kimura 

In this playful story, Mr. Bungles scrambles to get to school on time, trying everything from cars to trains to even a hot-air balloon. It became extra special for me when an editor at Hisakata Child in Japan discovered it and brought it into the Japanese children’s book market. The sweetest surprise was learning that the editor was a friend of my own friend — who then became the translator! This book carries many wonderful memories for me.
