This picture book was co-published as part of a Japan-China cultural exchange. It is now out of print and a rare find. It does not have a cover. I purchased it at a used bookstore, and it appears to be a former library book, as there is a barcode sticker on the back cover. Also, there is some creasing in the pages from being opened.
