Synopsis

Before she loses her mother, young Hachikazuki-hime is given one final gift: a large wooden bowl placed gently over her head, a blessing meant to protect her always. But when the bowl will not come off, she must face a world that judges her by what it cannot understand.

Cast out by a cruel stepmother, rescued from a river by a kind boatman, and hidden away in a nobleman's kitchen, Hachikazuki-hime carries her mother's love with quiet dignity through every trial — until a chance meeting under the moonlight changes everything.

This gentle retelling of a beloved Japanese folktale explores the enduring bond between mother and child, and the truth that real worth can never be hidden by appearances. Beautifully illustrated in soft watercolor and ink, and presented in side-by-side English and Japanese text, this bilingual picture book is perfect for family read-alouds, language learners, and anyone who loves the timeless tales of Japan.

Kogetsu Japanese Tales is a growing collection of classic Japanese folktales, retold for readers ages 7–12 in beautifully illustrated bilingual editions — bringing the wonder of Japan's storytelling tradition to children everywhere.
