A customer who often comes to our Kobe store.
He always wears a hat and drops by on his way home from work.
When I told them that the second floor of the store will soon be a picture book section,
The next day, he gave me a picture book as a gift.
"There is a phone on top of the mountain.
Someone came today too.
No lines connected
To talk on the phone...
It's a story that really touches your heart.
I read it alone after closing time and cried. Lol
Even in this age where you can connect with anyone, anywhere, anytime with your mobile phone,
There's something I want to tell you
There are some things that I can't tell you anymore.
I'm sure there are many people who feel the same way .
We live in an age where mobile phones allow us to connect with anyone, anywhere, anytime,
To digest the feelings that I can no longer express,
Maybe I'm just not that good at it.
Tomorrow marks nine years since the Great East Japan Earthquake.
It seems that "Wind Telephone" is a picture book that was written at that time.

To the children who come to the store
A wooden toy called "Telephone Booth" is popular.
It may be a toy, but to children it's the real thing.
In the world of creativity, it really can connect anywhere.
When I see them like that, I feel that children are amazing .
No matter how old you are, no matter what era you live in,
I want to keep that wide world in my heart .
