Overview
With nostalgic charm and gentle magic so characteristic of award-winning Sachiko Kashiwaba, The Village Beyond the Mist, which inspired Spirited Away, will captivate and enchant readers of all ages.
This timeless and enduring Japanese classic from 1975 served as the inspiration for the beloved Studio Ghibli film, Spirited Away, and it's available for the first time to English-speaking readers. The story follows Lina, a sixth-grade girl who embarks on a solo train journey to spend the summer in a rural village. However, upon arrival, she discovers that the valley's might not exist!
Through a mysterious encounter involving wind, mist, and a magic umbrella, she arrives at a grand house on a cobbled street. As Lina adapts to her new responsibilities around town, she learns more about friendship and herself than she previously thought possible.
