The illustrations are by Shigeru Hatsuyama. Published as a single volume by Asahi Shimbun in Showa 17. The preface states, "Moved by Asahi's plan to create something that children and their mothers could read together." Therefore, it is composed of simple and easy-to-read short essays. It consists of a total of forty sections. The "God of Bero Bero" is mentioned in "The Story of Hook Divination" and "The God of Bero Bero." In the section "The God of Bero Bero," it states, "It is not so old in our country that dolls have become realistic like they are now. The Oshirasama, a wooden god danced by blind shamans in the Tohoku region, is, in some places, just a stick covered with cloth, and in other places, only the eyes, nose, and mouth are drawn on the head of the wood. And this is still sometimes remembered by names such as Kagibotoke. In the strong illusions of the faithful, even a small branch with a hook could still be seen as a blessed god, and it seems that bringing it in front of the mouth of the person who worshiped it was an important condition. Wooden dolls called Oshaburi in Tokyo and Neburiko in Kansai also had their original forms before they were turned on a potter's wheel to become the current Kokeshi dolls, and perhaps they were later managed by the hands of young children." It also touches upon the origin of Kokeshi dolls. #ShigeruHatsuyama #PictureBook #KodomoNoKuni #ChihiroArtMuseum #ChildrensBooks #ChildrensIllustrations #FolkToys #TraditionalKokeshi #Oshirasama #TraditionalKokeshi
