This book is captivating with its warm colors and powerful imagery of woodblock prints. Reading Kame-san's "Please get it for me" and "Thank you" fills you with a gentle feeling. The animals are all kind, creating a heartwarming atmosphere. My 4-month-old daughter also seems very interested in looking at it. This is a book I want to keep reading forever. It's very soothing. [Publisher's Introduction] Children want things that belong to others, and they want to do the same things as adults and older people. The turtle in this picture book also wants apples, oranges, and cherries that are out of reach on a tall tree, and asks the animals to "get them for me." Children will empathize with the turtle, and feel comforted by the kind-hearted animals. This picture book beautifully expresses the heartwarming interactions between the turtle and the animals with Nobuo Fukuchi's powerful lines and vivid colors of woodblock prints. There is some sun damage, color fading, and staining, but there are no tears, folds, or scribbles. - Title: Please Get It For Me - Author: Nobuo Fukuchi - Publisher: Fukuinkan Shoten - Series: 0.1.2.
