Thank you, diligent readers, for your astute suggestions. In fact, Herriot and Kipling are just the type of cozy stories I'm in the mood for. I've read a few of Kipling's (naturally, Kim being at the top of the list), and have watched about every episode of All Creatures Great And Small on PBS back in Canada. (a little aside here - PBS has some of the best quality programming ever and one of the few things I've ever donated money too).
I'm off to Amazon.co.jp to pick up a few books for the holidays!

Another reading suggestion, altho the book is way too big to take with on a trip: "Tales of Genji," by Murazaki-san. I really enjoyed the historical and cultural background - explained a lot of modern-day Japan.
