This history book, composed of photographs, illustrations, and diagrams, is recommended as a gateway to understanding the history of the Ryukyu Islands. This history book has also been enhanced by adding information on the "Three Major Events of Ryukyu History" and "Traditional Ryukyu Crafts" to the "Ryukyu Dynasty Stories" series planned by Tadashi Teruya, a Ryukyu picture book author and planning designer, to make this booklet more complete. Among other things, the "World Heritage" introduction page includes photos, maps, addresses, and phone numbers for nine Ryukyu-related sites, and "map codes" for each site have been inserted so that visitors can use the book as a navigator while driving.This history book is a special "booklet" that has two elements: a "supplementary reader" for elementary and junior high schools and a "tourist pamphlet".

The theme of this book is "family love" among creatures living on the earth.It is a picture book with very simple content, but for some reason, after reading it, you will feel a sense of warmth. The basic theme is "family," but if you read it from another point of view, there is a bigger theme hidden in this work. If you read it again carefully, you will understand it. If you read it with this in mind, you may enjoy this picture book.

Recommended for frog fans.This picture book is a work that children (target age range: 4-8 years old) will want to "read" or "read to". As stated in the "Afterword" of this book, we hope that children will feel "something" through the story.In the story, the main character, a tadpole, encounters various creatures and makes comparisons relative to nature. However, when the tadpole finally meets the mother frog, it begins to develop a sense of self-awareness.In other words, the protagonist gains confidence in his existence by recognizing himself, and from that moment on, he begins to walk with an identity. I feel this is deeply connected to human parenting.The picture book also includes an appendix page with information (photos and comments) on the growth process from tadpole to frog and the types of frogs in Okinawa. This picture book is a must-read for frog "fans.
