Synopsis coming soon.......
Kiki's Delivery Service Picture Book tells the story of Kiki, a young witch-in-training, who has reached the age of 13. According to tradition, all witches of that age must leave home for one year to learn how to live independently. Accompanied by her talking cat, Jiji, Kiki flies away to the seaside town of Korico.
In Korico, Kiki begins her own delivery service, using her broom as the delivery vehicle. Throughout the story, Kiki must navigate the challenges of her new life, especially when she faces the loss of her magical ability to fly.
This is a breezy picture and storybook featuring artwork taken directly from the movie, Kiki’s Delivery Service.

About the Author
Hayao Miyazaki is one of Japan’s most beloved animation directors. In 2005 he was awarded the Venice International Film Festival’s Golden Lion Award for Lifetime Achievement, and his Studio Ghibli received the festival’s Osella Award for overall achievement in 2004. Miyazaki’s films include Spirited Away, winner of the 2002 Academy Award® for Best Animated Feature Film, as well as Castle in the Sky, My Neighbor Totoro, Kiki's Delivery Service, Princess Mononoke, Howl's Moving Castle, and Ponyo, all of which have received great acclaim in the U.S. Miyazaki’s other achievements include the highly regarded manga series Nausicaä of the Valley of the Wind and Starting Point: 1979-1996, a collection of essays, interviews, and memoirs that chronicle his early career and the development of his theories of animation. Both are published in English by VIZ Media.
