“Every year, I’m at a loss as to what theme to choose, but this time I chose the theme of a girl living in the forest.It’s a year with cats and dogs who live together, and the animals in the forest.
I also included my desire to live in a forest like this. I would be happy if you could spend a fun year with these kids. ”
