“14 Forest Mice” is a book series that is very popular in Japan and many European countries, celebrating the beauty of everyday life and the experiences of three generations of a mouse family: grandparents, parents, and a dozen little mice.
“14 Forest Mice: Lullaby” is about the end of a long, eventful day and the tender, important evening rituals. A warm Japanese bath with splashing and games, a cozy dinner, and stories the little mice tell each other in turn. And, of course, a bedtime story from Mom and a lullaby from Grandma: tucking in for the night with the mouse family is a true pleasure!
Iwamura’s books resemble miniature dollhouses where you want to examine and touch every detail, and every small event is filled with a truly Japanese philosophy of appreciating life in every moment.
