Translation

From summer to autumn, dragonflies fly at ponds and rice paddies.

Dragonflies fly very fast, and can even stop in midair.

They use their big eyes to find and eat small insects.

They eat mosquitoes and harmful bugs, so they help people.

Baby dragonflies are called yago and grow up in the water.

Long ago, Japan was called the island of dragonflies.

Why six school grades, and not N5–N1?

Because that is how Japanese children learn to read. Japan's Ministry of Education fixes exactly which character belongs to which grade — so "grade 3" is a boundary you can verify, not a feeling. Every article here is machine-checked: if a single character sits above its grade, it is not published.

The result: you never hit a character you have not learned. That is the whole reason this product exists.
