An uplifting picture book about the true story of a man who planted thousands of his wife's favorite flower in their small Japanese town after she suffers the loss of her sight. An epic love story that delights young readers.
Mr. and Mrs. Kuroki live in Japan. They dream of traveling to distant countries once their cows are old and their children have grown up. But before this dream can come true, tragedy strikes. Mrs. Kuroki loses her sight, and with it, her joy for life. Determined to ease his wife’s sorrow, Mr. Kuroki decides to create an immense garden filled with his wife's favorite flower, the Shibazakura.
This breathtaking and unique garden soon gains attention from all over the world. Over time, visitors arrive, eager to witness with their own eyes the place where a man's love has blossomed in an effort to bring back his wife's smile.
Inspired by a true story, this poignant album, rich in poetic depth, beautifully illustrates human resilience, love, and beauty. Ohara Hale, drawing from her Japanese heritage and memories of her grandmother, infuses this story with the warmth and delicacy of a timeless Japan, bringing the touching tale of the Kurokis to life.
