102: Why are the Pokemon books printed backward?

I'm grateful for quiet-time after the littlest ones are in bed.

Because in Japan that is how they read (vertical lines of text that are read top to bottom, right to left) so their books start on the right hand side (the back) instead. It's interesting that they kept it that way with the English version.

He is so cute.
