[Today] "Today" by Hiromi Ito (translation) and Masakatsu Shimoda (illustration) for Mother's Day gifts

About the productJapanese

A poem that begins with, "Today I didn't wash the dishes."
A poem that sends encouragement to mothers raising babies has been circulating in English-speaking countries, particularly New Zealand. The poem gently comforts mothers who are overwhelmed with the care of their children and have no time to spare, saying, "If you are able to cherish this irreplaceable child now, then you'll be fine," encouraging caregivers all over the world. The English poem has now been given a concrete form with a suitable Japanese translation and illustrations.

From one perspective it may be a failure, but from another perspective it's not. Maybe there is no such thing as failure in raising children. This book is for those who are raising children and are tired of searching for answers, and it will help to lighten the load a little.

The cloth binding is lovely, making it a book you'll want to keep forever. It's the perfect gift for a newborn baby.
