Synopsis

Time stands still for a small cabin in the forest. “Welcome, take a rest here.” In the deep forest, there is a rest stop for travelers. A boy is looking after the place all alone. Knock. Knock. “Come in, please” At the kind response of the boy, a cat enters the rest stop and starts to spill out her story. Knock. Knock. Then a dog, a hamster and a parrot visit the rest stop one by one. After finishing each animals’ story, the boy opens a map to guide them. Where is the boy leading them to? What is left unsaid by animals? This is a book to comfort someone who has ever had experience of losing companion animals. (Source: at noon books)
