"14 Forest Mice" is a very popular series of books in Japan and many European countries about the beauty of everyday life and the life of three generations of a mouse family: grandmother, grandfather, mother, father, and a dozen more little mice.
In the book "14 Forest Mice. Pumpkin," the whole family is gardening – the little mice first plant a pumpkin seed, then take care of it, and day after day, watch the sprout, bud, flowers, and the growth of a large, beautiful orange pumpkin. And when it ripens – it's time for the harvest and an autumn feast! The changing seasons and weather, the magic of nature, amazing light – all are present in the illustrations by the Japanese artist!
Kazuo Iwamura's books resemble miniature dollhouses where you want to examine and touch every detail, and every small event is filled with a truly Japanese philosophy and an appreciation for life in every moment.
Full-scale format, hardcover, enlarged pictures to make it easier to see all the details! The text is specially placed outside the illustrations so as not to interfere with examining each detail.
