Issun Bôshi, the classic Japanese fairy tale of the tiny, brave boy, returns in a new edition and format. After years of wishing for a child, an elderly couple is blessed with a son no taller than an inch. Armed with a needle as his sword, a bowl as his boat, and a chopstick as his oar, Issun Bôshi sets out to find his place in the world.
In a series of adventures, he proves that courage matters more than size—and, as in every true fairy tale, he wins the princess in the end.

Icinori are Mayumi Otero and Raphaël Urwiller. Mayumi Otero is a French illustrator of children's books whose drawings and etchings are often playfully ironic. Her colleague Raphaël Urwiller is a graphic designer and illustrator who works for news-papers and magazines in addition to creating children's books. Together, Otero and Urwiller designed Issun Bôshi in a style reminiscent of Asia.
Ontdek het tijdloze Japanse sprookje Issun Bôshi, The One-Inch Boy in een prachtige nieuwe editie. Dit klassieke verhaal vertelt over een dapper jongetje, niet groter dan een duim, dat zijn moed en vindingrijkheid gebruikt om zijn plek in de wereld te vinden. Gewapend met een naald als zwaard, een kom als boot en een eetstokje als peddel, trotseert Issun Bôshi avonturen die bewijzen dat moed belangrijker is dan grootte en, zoals in ieder goed sprookje, wint hij uiteindelijk het hart van de prinses.
