Work Information

Bright sunlight and the smell of the tide bring one boy's summer vividly to life.

A picture book by Hideo Ito in Holp Shuppan's Image no Mori series. It takes a seaside summer as its subject and uses bold lines and color to render a child's bodily sensations and memories, leaving a long afterglow in a brief reading experience.

Review Summaries

  • Readers value the way the illustrations convey even the scent and humidity of the season. It is best suited to those who enjoy lingering atmosphere more than dramatic plot movement.
