A timeless classic of Japanese children's literature: One night, alone on a hilltop, a young boy is swept aboard a magical train bound for the Milky Way.
This tender fable is a book of great wisdom and adventure, offering insight into the afterlife. Kenji Miyazawa (1896–1933), little known in his lifetime, went on to be one Japan's most celebrated literary figures of the early 20th century for his children's stories. Perhaps Miyazawa's most beloved story in Japan, this translation of the Milky Way Railroad is sure to delight both children and parents, and evoke the same wonder and poignancy familiar to fans of Studio Ghibli.
