Noma Children's Literature Award
かわいそうな自動車の話 (偕成社の創作)
A children's work that uses the familiar subject of automobiles to tell a gentle story about the relationship between people and objects. With illustrations by Daihachi Ota, it leads readers from affection for vehicles toward the sadness of things that are used and the human gaze directed at them.
Work Information
A story that looks closely at automobiles and turns toward a feeling of care for things.
Kawaisouna Jidosha no Hanashi is a creative children's book published by Kaiseisha, written by Yasuo Maekawa and illustrated by Daihachi Ota. Published in 1981, it received the Noma Children's Literature Award that year. By portraying familiar vehicles not merely as tools but as presences to which children can attach feeling, the work quietly invites reflection on use, aging, and compassion.
