Okinagusa

It is a story of lovely flowers that bloom in the field, sometimes called urchin suge.
The flowers, which bloom facing downwards, look black and purple from above, but from the ants' perspective, they turn red as if they burn through the light of the sun.
Kenji loved this flower, which was transforming in various ways.

This book will captivate you with its beautiful scenery and carefully drawn, enchanting atmosphere, and will make you feel warm and warm.
