[Story]
The main character is Little Nutbrown Hare and Big Nutbrown.
On the way to sleep, the little rabbit wanted to ask the big rabbit. "How much do you like?""But I'm this," said the big rabbit, to the little rabbit who stretched out his arms.Compare how much you like each other. I close my eyes by saying, "I like you as much as I can reach you." The big rabbit lays the little rabbit on the bed of leaves, kisses good night, and "I like you so much."

[Unique point and theme
It is a heartwarming story that competes for "how much you like". You can feel the importance of expressing "like" again. This is a story that many people can enjoy because the relationship between these two animals applies to any relationship, such as parents and children, friends, and lovers. So, we think this story theme is love.

We think the theme of this book is not a fantasy, but a description of what often happen to children. We want to recommend. Because, this is book of communication between parents and children and warms the heart.

In this book there are three little bears, and they go into the spooky old tree. After that, they face various animals and traps.

The interesting point is that they have three tools in the beginning, but they drop all things and have only shivers in the end. This book teaches dangerous things such spooky places. The author’s humor is that the facial expressions of three little bears looks interesting. Finally, we recommend this book, because we can learn about dangerous things with the words and the name of places.

Twelve little girls live with Miss Clavel in Paris. One day, the smallest girl, Madeline, was hospitalized due to disease. Her father gave her many toys and candies because he thought she would be bored to be alone. The other girls saw that, and they envied her and lied that they had stomachaches.
We have two reasons that this story makes unique. First, it is about pictures. Pictures in the book for children are usually colorful. But the pictures in this story are not. Second, it is about the mind. I think if the characters are adults, they feel only sad when Madeline be hospitalized. However, the children thought she was happy because many toys surrounded her. It is the emotion that only children have, and this is the theme of this book. The author uses humor. When eleven girls were crying, Miss Clavel did not care about that because maybe she knew they lied.
We recommend this book because we think both children and adults can enjoy this book. There are points that we can sympathize with both Miss Clavel and the girls.

Negative things continue to happen to Claire. For example, her school lunch was her least favorite food, and she missed the bus. So, she decided to go to Bunny Planet. Bunny Planet means in Claire's dream. Then, she harvested some crops, such as a ruby red tomato, at the Bunny Planet. Her mother cooked First Tomato soup for her. After that, the bus came, and she went back to her house.

The unique point is drawing the dream world of the main character. Also, the theme is the importance of taking a break. In addition, the author didn't use humor. We would like to recommend this book because the picture is cute, and Claire became happy at the end, and the story will warm the readers' hearts.

The main character is Harry, a white dog with black spots. He dislikes getting a bath. One day,  he ran away from home. He went to many places and got dirty. So, he changed from a white dog with black spots to a black dog with white spots. He went to his home, but his family couldn’t recognize that he was Harry. So, he asked his family to clean his body. Finally, he returned to his original form.

The colors in this book are limited to only white, black, green, and yellow. I think it's interesting to depict the color of the dirty body as being the opposite of the original body color. The behavior of hiding things you don't like is similar to that of human children, and it's humorous.

[Story]
Toad never gets any mail, but a kind Frog wrote a Letter to Toad and entrusted the letter to a snail. Still, Toad gave it up, but they kept waiting for arriving. Four days later, the snail got to Toad's house and finally gave him the Letter. Toad became very happy to have it.

[unique point and theme]
An interesting point is Frog entrusted the job of sending a letter for Toad to snail, though Snail is known as moving slowly animal. This book’s theme is “friend” because Frog never abandoned Toad. Lastly, they got along more. I think the importance of friends is the message of this author.
