"We wait for so long, and when they finally come, the petals fall so quickly. Mono no aware, ne?"
"What does that mean, mono no aware?"
Little Yuna can't wait for her great-grandmother's cherry tree to bloom. She and her hībāchan spend each day outside, watching the tree's flowers unfurl. But once the tree blooms, the moment is so brief before it loses its petals again--this is what her hībāchan calls mono no aware. It isn't until her great grandmother--and the petals she loves--are gone that Yuna finally understands what the phrase really means: an awareness of something's impermanence.
Critically acclaimed illustrator Yas Imamura of Love in the Library has created stunning artwork to accompany this profound text. Readers will love pouring over these pages again and again!
