He’s been a rabbit ever since.”  With these surrealist, yet matter-of-fact opening lines, we are transported to a world very much like our own, yet one that is imbued with an added dimension of wonder and curiosity. In Sato’s world, ordinary objects and everyday routines can lead to magical encounters: a rain puddle, reflecting the sky, becomes a window that can be opened and peered through. A walnut is cracked open to reveal a tiny home, complete with a bathtub and a comfy bed. During a meteor shower, Sato catches stars in a net, illuminating the path home for a family taking an evening walk. This whimsical tale is the first in a trilogy from Japan.

Recensioner i media

"Sato...walks upright through a natural world reminiscent of the Chirri & Chirra series—one that offers enchanting and sometimes droll revelations. He waters his garden, and a spread traces the water along a twisting, turning course through the forest back to its source, a pond that, in Blaskowsky’s natural-sounding translation, “is blowing water into the hose as hard as it can.” Each episode is over in a few pages, and every one offers kaleidoscopic, pleasingly sensorial images made for dreaming on." —STARRED REVIEW, Publishers Weekly
