A picture book by Ryoji Arai, a popular Japanese picture book writer, depicting the joy of living.

A small mountain village, a lively city where many people and cars come and go, and a land full of colorful plants. At each location, the children who are welcoming the morning open windows at the beginning of a new day.

The casual daily life of waking up and opening the window in the morning and the natural scenery that spreads out of the window. However, it is a book that gently reminds us that there is a joy of living and a certain hope in the repetition of everyday life.

    This is a lovely book — one with lots of creativity and beautiful scenery. A child will enjoy looking and discovering each time he has this book in hand. He is 4 years old and will be going to Japan this Fall for the first time. This will be an introduction to all the scenery and he can anticipate the exciting things he will experience.
