In 1956, Tadashi Matsui became editor-in-chief and launched the monthly picture book “Kodomo no Tomo.” Since then, based on the belief that “picture books that both adults and children can enjoy, created by the best authors and illustrators of the day, are the best picture books for children,” the company has published original picture books such as “Gurigura” and “My First Errand,” as well as original fairy tales such as “Iyaiyaen” and “Kiki’s Delivery Service.” The company has also introduced excellent international works to Japan, including “Peter Rabbit Picture Book” and “Elmer’s Adventure.” “Kodomo no Tomo” will celebrate its 70th anniversary in 2026.
