Haru yo Koi is a children's literary work by Mitsuo Hama. Set against the feeling of waiting for spring, it gently portrays children's emotions, their relationships with friends and family, and the familiar landscapes of their community.

In the time spent waiting for spring, small changes begin to grow in the hearts of children.

A poetry collection for children by Junichi Kobayashi. The title poem, Mosaku Jiisan, portrays an old man who spends the day looking out to sea and murmuring while peering through an old telescope, using gentle language accessible to children. The collection brings together poems about everyday scenes, play, family, and nature, combining familiarity with quiet resonance.

From the figure of old Mosaku gazing at the sea, a child's imagination quietly expands.
