Talking about a fireplace during this hot season?

Usagi and I are seated at the back of the store.
There are picture books placed next to flyers given to us by nearby shops. All of them feature rabbits as characters.

Picture books are often thought of as something for children to read.
When customers come to the store with their families, it's common for the child to choose a book, bring it to the table, and read it together...but these books were originally intended for adults.
Not only commercially available books, but also picture books handmade by artists...

Franny and Melanie and picture books by Komako Sakai seem to be popular among children.

Although I don't see many customers picking up and reading this picture book, the owner would like adult customers to read it rather than children.

I would especially like people to pick up the book and read it when they come to the store feeling a little tired.

Looking at the reviews on Ehon Navi (a Japanese picture book review site) , more than half of the readers were adults.

The characters are me, a rabbit, and a little bit of a cat.
I got lost in the snowy mountains and found a big tree with a door. When I went inside, I found animals gathered around a fireplace.

The words spoken by the rabbit are profound...

The words that the rabbit speaks are very profound...

The rabbit's words as he sits in front of the fire, staring intently at the fire, are very profound.
I think some people might cry if they read it when they're tired.

"If you're tired, just rest. Don't push yourself too hard, just stay still and you'll feel better."
"The best thing is to fall in love. If you have that feeling, you'll be fine anywhere. If there's something you love, you'll be fine no matter what time it is."

It starts walking through the snow and then finally emerges from the tree.
After reading it several times, I feel like I can really understand the depth of this book.

This is a picture book that makes you feel warm, as if you are being accepted just as you are.

A book recommended by the shop owner. Please pick it up when you visit.
