A shy Japanese boy having difficulty adjusting to school is misjudged by his classmates.

Chibi has been an outcast since that frightening first day of school

when he hid under the schoolhouse. Afraid of the teacher and unable to

make any friends, Chibi passes his free time alone -alone at study

time, alone at playtime, always a ""forlorn little tag-along."" But when

Mr. Isobe arrives, the teacher sees things in Chibi that no one else has

ever noticed...

""A shy mountain boy in Japan leaves his home at dawn and returns at

sunset to go to the village school. Pictures and text of moving and

harmonious simplicity."" -Saturday Review
