Description
The first book in a completely charming series by a well-known Japanese author and illustrator, Chirri & Chirra introduces two girl characters who go on wonderful adventures together through the natural world. Vibrant, lively, and astonishingly sweet in a pure, unsentimental way, these pages present us with relatable children, small animals, lots of food, atmosphere, and many mysteries.
Born in Tokyo, Japan, Kaya Doi graduated with a degree in design from Tokyo Zokei University. She got her start in picture books by attending the Atosaki Juku Workshop, held at a Tokyo bookshop specialising in picture books. Since then she has produced numerous picture books featuring her softly styled, colour-pencil drawings.
She now lives in Chiba Prefecture and maintains a strong interest in environmental and animal welfare issues. Since the earthquake of 2011, she has been active in recovery and shelter efforts for abandoned pets.

Sarah El praises the book as a perfect day in a serene world, highlighting its absence of adults and the whimsical animal characters who run the amenities along Chirri and Chirra's journey. The pastel illustrations on creamy paper recall classic children's picture books, and the story’s gentle, unsentimental tone will charm kids who love detailed descriptions of food and nature.
