This is not an ordinary book: it's a BookCrossing book! BookCrossing books are world travelers - they like to have adventures and make new friends...and with your help, they can even write home to say what they've been doing! (You may remain anonymous if you wish.)

Story & art by Rumiko Takahashi; translated from the Japanese by Gerard Jones and Matt Thorn.

A martial arts training trip to China results in unusual curses for teenager Ranma Saotome and his father Genma: cold water turns turns Genma into a panda..and Ranma into a girl. Hot water turns them back into their original selves. Needless to say, this complicates their lives a bit... ;)

BookCrossing: making the whole world a library!

Despite this being a bit of a classic, I don't think I've ever read any of it! I've seen a couple episodes of the anime, I think.

Thank you for sharing it with me, and for all the other goodies!

Added to the Little Free Library.

I was looking forward to reading this, but need to get books out urgently. Hopefully the next reader will have a better place for it!
