- Book Intro
-
One child slides along a thin rope, releases the rope and jumps from a high point to a low point. Another child stretches and dives towards the ground.
This time there are more children. They bounce like on a trampoline, going up high and down low. One child jumps down, then another, and another, and another. Sometimes they stay together, sometimes they pair up, sometimes they split up and travel from place to place.
We don't know how many of these brave children there are, because there are too many to count. We don't even know where they live. They like to jump from great heights, but sometimes they dance, sometimes they swing, and sometimes they do breathtaking acrobatics, like in a circus.
They love to travel. There isn't anywhere in the world they haven't been. Large fields and deep mountain valleys are all playgrounds for them.
Sometimes they have colour, sometimes they don't. Sometimes they're ashen, sometimes blue, sometimes transparent, sometimes they look like tiny icicles glinting in the sun, and sometimes their whole body looks like a rainbow.
Now do you know who they are?

(English) The waves come ceaselessly in various shapes
while we look elsewhere, while we are tired of waiting, and while we forget expecting them to come.
We grow playing with the waves.
Here I introduce you to another wave of mine, Here Come the Waves, different from Who Are You and When a Persimmon Tree Calls.
(French) Elle a appris les métiers du Bois à l’université, et puis elle a travaillé en tant que décoratrice dans les grands magasins. Maintenant, elle fait des livres illustrés avec son enfant. 《Qui es-tu》 et 《Quand l’arbre à kaki m’appelle》 sont les fruits de sa forêt de Toto. Voilà le troisième fruit 《Arbre toto》.
