The Crane Wife (Japan's Masterpiece Picture Book Series)

This beautiful edition from Fukuinkan Shoten brings to life the classic Japanese folk tale of 'Tsuru Nyobo,' or 'The Crane Wife.' It tells the poignant story of a man who saves a crane, only for the crane to mysteriously transform into a woman and become his wife, bringing him prosperity through her weaving. However, the tale explores themes of love, sacrifice, and the consequences of broken trust when the husband succumbs to curiosity about her true identity. As part of Japan's Masterpiece Picture Book Series, it features exquisite illustrations suitable for all ages, making it a cherished piece of Japanese cultural heritage. Note: The text is entirely in Japanese. Brand New Japanese Edition.
