Japan-Only Mario Book Name?

Hello,

I saw the following comic strip on Twitter, and it says that the Book Name is "Super Mario Adventure Book 2" that is Japan-only. But I can't seem to find a book by that title.

On the Mario Wiki Page for Publications it's not listed: https://www.mariowiki.com/List_of_publications#Comics (or am I missing or confusing it with another name listed there?)

Love the artwork and would like to buy it and potentially do a translation into English page by page.

Any help would be appreciated!

Thanks,

Nick

Doing a quick reverse image search finds a copy of that image on several articles on the wiki itself, which identifies the image as being from the 'Super Mario Story Quiz Picture Book 2: Mario's Sports Day' or, in Japanese (which will help if you want to find a copy) 「スーパーマリオおはなしクイズえほん 2 マリオの うんどうかい」.

Thank you so much for the tip!

After digging deeper I found out there were 6 in this series all released in 1997:

Mario Story Picture Book Quiz 1: Come on Wario - ISBN - 4091144918
Mario Story Picture Book Quiz 2: Mario Sports Day - ISBN - 4091144926
Mario Story Picture Book Quiz 3: Mario Picnic - ISBN - 4091144934
Mario Story Picture Book Quiz 4: Princess Peach - ISBN - 4091144942
Mario Story Picture Book Quiz 5: Mario Fun - ISBN - 4091144950
Mario Story Picture Book Quiz 6: Kidnapped Friend - ISBN - 4091144969

I'll try and find a way to get a hold of them all on amazon Japan and report back. Maybe we should notify the lads on mariowiki to update the publications page with those books!

Thanks again
