Who am I? Who are you? What is the grass like? Where is the sky? Many children dream of becoming superheroes, drawn to their unusual powers and action-packed adventures. But isn't there a superpower that each of us has in the real world, which most of us, whether children or adults, forget in our daily lives?
Thought, the most impressive human ability, is our true superpower. And the most effective way to teach children to discover and use it is through questions, of any kind and regardless of how simple, about the most common things in the world around us.
In "The Thoughts of a Frog," famous Japanese artist Kazuo Iwamura chose the comic technique to invite children, with the help of two funny characters, a frog and a mouse, to ask questions. The book can be seen as a brief introduction to philosophy for young readers, but in reality, it is an invitation to play - what can we do with our own minds, how far can we go?
Kazuo IWAMURA was born in Tokyo in 1939. He studied art and design and began his career as a graphic designer for children's programs on NHK, Japanese television. He also worked as a designer for a cosmetics company before deciding to become a children's book author and illustrator.
