This is a long shot, but... does anyone know anywhere that sells English Kamishibai?

Further to my latest post, I thought it would be no harm to ask here either: does anyone know anywhere you can get English kamishibai? The post / about Kamishibai: https://www.city-cost.com/blogs/Saitama/wZxvz-living_education_saitama

    Not exactly an answer to your question, but something interesting. My kids once received English kamishiba from a restaurant as their toy that comes with the kids meal. It had katakana and Japanese translation as well.

How do you feel about nuclear power?

This week, the mayor of Niigata officially approved the restarting of a nuclear power plant in Kashiwazaki. My home country doesn't use nuclear power, so it makes me a bit uneasy. How do you feel about it? Would you be comfortable with a nuclear power plant operating in your prefecture?

Your favourite wordplay, pun, or palindrome in Japanese

BigfamJapan blogged about a day for palindromes, and I had a good chuckle. I love wordplay in Japanese! What's your favourite pun, palindrome, or spoonerism (a phrase that gets mangled into another meaning when you switch syllables). For reference, I cracked up when a coworker said "Naiyo ga nai yo" on finding an empty sweets packet.
