Chirri & Chirra, The Snowy Day

The third book in a much-loved Japanese series, this warm and gentle story captures the simple joys of food, friendship and everyday adventure. Filled with charming artwork and a welcoming sense of culture, it invites readers into a beautifully illustrated world that feels both comforting and fresh.

Why we love it

Kaya Doi’s illustrations are soft, inviting and wonderfully detailed — especially the delightful food scenes that practically leap off the page. This book offers a lovely window into another culture, all wrapped in a cosy story with a tender, inviting tone. Yuki Kaneko’s translation brings every moment to life with clarity and care.
