Kadokawa Bunko / During the Pacific War, Iko, who lost her mother at a young age, decided to move to a small village in Chiba Prefecture with her younger brother who had just been born. She was too scared to be her father's second marriage partner. Her classmates rumored that a deserter had escaped into the dark and large forest near her house and killed herself. One night, the thin sound of harmonica was played from the back of the forest. A few days later, Iko's geta, which she had lost in the marsh, was placed at the exit of the forest. "Ari ga to," Iko muttered. The war intensified, and her half-dead and half-born father was found in the Great Tokyo Air Raid. Overwhelmed by anxiety, Iko enters the forest. "Soldier!" Then Iko saw. "The war story of a 9-year-old girl drawn by the author of" KIKI'S DELIVERY SERVICE ". (Commentary by Yoko OGAWA)
