Mr. Black and His Dog

A black and white gray city, a window, and a human. This is a story about people who live in a world that is black-and-white and gray. Faced with a dreary life, perhaps he needs to make some changes. Until one day, a green item resembling a traction rope appeared, and at the other end of the rope was a looming puppy. Mr. Black's fantastic voyage is about to begin as he follows the dog. Who knows what will happen next? This is a pictorial book that brings comfort to lonely people.

The Cats that Lived in the Tree

Stray casts frequently appear in our sights, curling up under roofs and hiding behind car hoods... They always have a difficult life in the city. Cats are soft and cuddly. Their presence adds a touch of warmth to the human world. Humans and all living species have a similar relationship in that when we embrace them, they return happiness and goodwill to us! Take a look inside! This is a touching story about kindness and faith.
