Biography

Suzuki was born in Hiroshima. He studied English literature at Tokyo Imperial University, and later launched a children's literature magazine called 赤い鳥 in 1918. Unusually for its time, the journal emphasized learning from observation and experience rather than rote learning, and focused on everyday language as much as ceremonial language. 196 issues were published.
