Editorial Reviews

Review

"Everything about this new book communicates cozy, snuggly, soft and warm. It's a delight."--Kirkus Reviews
★"Kaya Doi is on to something with her fantastical-nonsensical Chirri and Chirra books. While spa treatments and allaying stress may seem like grown-up interests, modern-day kids are living in an adult-made world of media supersaturation and technological pyrotechnics; the Chirri and Chirra books allow young readers to escape into an adult- and complication-free dreamscape of animals, sweets and unimpeded fun."-- STARRED REVIEW, Nell Beram, Shelf Awareness
"Turning the pages of the Chirri & Chirra books, imports from Japan, feels like falling into a tiny, exquisite dream. This latest one has a wintertime theme and a mochi-colored palette. The adorableness is off the charts as the rosy-cheeked twins head out on their bikes and find the usual talking animals, sweet treats and other early childhood wish-fulfillment items (marbles, hand-held lanterns, a shelf of colorful books). This outing, on the first day of snowfall, takes them to an ice structure teeming with fun, then on to a cozy igloo for the night."-- The New York Times
"While riding their bicycles (Dring-dring, dring-dring!), Chirri and Chirra find a door made of ice. Behind it, they discover cheerful forest creatures sipping hot drinks, reading aloud and playing marbles with "the frozen buds of many kinds of flowers." When the girls and animals go to bathe in a hot spring, they bring the frozen marbles with them. "The ice on the buds melts and the flowers bloom," perfuming the warm water. Afterward, everyone eats cloud-like "rainbow-colored steamed buns from the hot spring, sprinkled with sugar." These exquisite touches give the book a magical feeling, as if it were a dream of childhood." --Meghan Cox Gurdon, The Wall Street Journal
"With a cast of affable woodland creatures, tasty treats, and a soak in the hot springs, you can't help feeling warmed by this charming book that pairs beautifully with the other two titles in this series." --Miranda Rosbach, My Bookbloom


"These whimsical stories are low on the angst scale and high on the charm meter...Doi is known for her softly styled drawings on rich creamy paper. She creates the illustrations in these books with colored pencils, pastels, and crayons, crafting them to give an old-world feel, a time of innocence and simplicity. The exquisite art radiates joy and has a dreamy quality to it that reflects how children imagine their ideal world to be. These delightful books are a welcome escape for young children from their anxieties." --International Examiner

After checking out Chirri and Chira in the tall grass from the library, I did something I almost never do. I bought it and the first in the series as well. Then I preordered this. They're all completely fantastic, an unexpected combination of calm and magic, but this one might be my favorite.

I adore this book. The illustrations are so cute and so sweet that it actually makes my stomach hurt. Beyond that, there are some beautiful reminders about life in winter and all the animals that are still active. My favorite spread is one depicting various animals engaging in all kinds of fun activities, both active and more passive or still, but none of them requiring technology. A subtle reminder to kids of all the fun they can have without their devices (if you're struggling to get them to set it down for an hour or more).

I purchased the first Chiri and Chira at our local bookstore and my family fell in love with it. We purchased the rest in the series as presents for the kids and they love them all. They are incredibly charming and unlike any other books we’ve ever read. We are even having Chiri and Chira camp this week based on the books.

So charming and magical! It’s like stepping into a childhood dream. My 3 year old loves this book but I would read this over and over on my own as well. We will definitely be collecting the rest of the Chirri & Chirra books!
