To those who like miniature things, we’d like to introduce our hand-made “mamebon” 豆本!

豆 - mame ==> "bean"
本 - hon (bon) ==> "book"

We made these notebooks. They are “as tiny as a bean”!

Write your snippets of thought in them. A mini journal perhaps? Have fun!

There are other Japanese words that use “mame” to mean something small.

“Mame chishiki” 豆知識. “Chishiki” means “knowledge”. So “mame chishiki” would usually refer to some trivia or fun fact.

And, “mame kenzan” 豆剣山 is a small kenzan!
