Summary:
Takuto is a kindergardener who can talk to insects and other small creatures. He has an older sister who tries to protect him, a father who prioritizes time with his mistress over his family, and a mother who only worries and waits for her husband's return. In this quiet yet precarious environment Takuto grows, communing with the little beings of the natural world while the lives of the adults around him change by the hour. The novel vividly paints each moment of life as experienced by a small child.
