## Description

My Neighbor Totoro: The Novel : Kubo, Tsugiko, Miyazaki, Hayao: desertcart.co.uk: Books

Review: Beautiful Book! - Very nice for the price I payed (even saving a couple of pounds). The canvas cover looks and feels wonderful and the paper is very white and quite thick. The print is large and the font is easily read. The illustrations by Miyazaki himself are soft and more like sketches making them easy on the eyes and suitable for people of every age. The book will be a birthday gift so I can't comment on the story itself but knowing Miyazaki, it will be brilliant. The book is just lovely and will be much appreciated by the birthday boy who is a huge fan of Hayao Miyazaki and Studio Ghibli. Couldn't be happier. :)
Review: Highly Recommended for any Studio Ghibli Fan - I bought this as soon as I saw I could. I love Studio Ghibli and I adore Totoro. This book is a cute hardback with some gorgeous illustrations (including a coloured map at the start!) and the writing is just as whimsical and magical as the film.

Looking forward in giving this to my daughter for Christmas. Beautifully bound and has a lovely dustcover. The illustrations inside are delicate and beautiful. Can't wait to see her reaction when she gets this. Prompt delivery and packaged well.
