Kamishibai Man [SCM]

by Allen Say Author

Long ago, children in Japan would come running at the sound of the kamishibai man's wooden clappers, eager for his stories and his sweets. But as time went by, fewer children gathered around, until there was only one small boy left. After that, the storyteller stopped riding his bicycle into town. Though many years have passed, he still longs to be a kamishibai man again, and so he returns to the city to share his stories one more time.
