- Book Intro
-
The squid who lived in the sea gets caught in the net of a fisherman and brought to the city. Filled with the desire to go back to the sea, the squid attempts an escape. He uses an explosive energy to tear the net to soar up into the sky. But alas, he plunges into a small spring in the forest, not the sea.
Wishing to return to the sea, the squid asks the tortoise to take him to the sea, but the tortoise is apathetic. When the moon rabbit, curious about the sea, tells him they can go together, the tortoise can’t help but follow them. On a hot sunny day, the two friends carry the squid over their shoulder and take the journey to the sea...
Due to the sunshine, the squid gradually becomes a dry squid while the two friends are becoming exhausted. Then the moon rises and rain falls. Long after sunset, the three friends reach the sea. Finally, the squid has arrived at its home. However, the moon rabbit now wants to go back home. But her home is the moon and she can’t reach it by walking. Will the moon rabbit be able to return home? - About the Author
