“Fly and think about it…” Synopsis
A little bird flying in the forest. Birds are still small and cannot fly very long. It flies away, takes a rest, eats nuts, flies again, takes a rest, and so on, little by little. Just when you think you’ve passed through the forest… ah! ! “The vast ocean stretched out as far as the bird’s eye could see.” How do you cross an ocean that has nowhere to rest and no fruit on the way? Little birds think hard. [Image 2

Mr. Taro Gomi has created many picture books with free ideas that are not bound by “ordinary”. The main character of this work is a small bird that seems to have inherited Gomi’s soul. A little bird that hits the wall of not being able to cross the sea, thinks freely, “Why don’t you try it like this?” It reminds me of Taro Gomi.
You can decide when to take the first step. Of course, you don’t have to step out. It is a picture book that makes you feel refreshed after reading it, as if someone was pompoming your back.
Gomi Taro’s picture book all digitized!
Along with the publication of “Fly and think about it…”, 22 picture books (including new ones) by Taro Gomi have become e-books! We will digitize Taro Gomi’s picture books several times in the future. [Image 4
