Favorite picture book 100kaidatenoie

100kaidatenoie was written by Toshio Iwai. Toshio Iwai was born in Aichi in 1962. He is a media artist. He has written a lot of books. For example, Chika100kaidatenoie, Umino100kaidatenoie, Sorano100kaidatenoie and Iwaisanchinoribettokun.

Various creatures live on every 10th floor. The main character, Tochi proceed toward the 100th floor. Many creatures appear in this story and Tochi goed upstairs while talking with creatures. There are frogs, squirrels, snakes, spiders, and so on. Tochi jumped rope with snakes and he drank acorn juice with a squirrel and he ate a honey cake with a bee and he ate a ice cream with a snail, etc. A spider prince was waiting on the 100th floor. Tochi and spider prince looked into the telescope and saw stars from the 100th floor. Tochi thought that stars seen from 100th floor were very beautiful.

I think that the pictures of each creature are so cute and friendly. Especially, my favorite characters are the snakes, the bat and the snails. The pictures are very cute and this book will be fun to read on. I think it is a very good picture book because you can read it while tracing the stairs with your finger.
