It gives readers additional details on the characters and setting and provides a glimpse into Satsukis thoughts as events unfold.

A beautiful book inside and out!A simple but magical story of the bond between a family and enjoying the simple things in life - helped by giant fluffy creatures who like umbrellas!
This book is the cutest thing ever and reading it is like a warm hug, or a cozy summer afternoon. The author uses a tender, descriptive language that is quite successful at bringing the beauty of the movie to mind, to the point that you don't even miss the movie and you don't even want to say one is better than the other.

I can't even begin to tell you how lovely this book was. I found it so comforting! I started watching Studio Ghibli movies a few years ago, and they really hold a special place in my heart. I've come to love the franchise, and when I saw this book I knew I'd want to pick it up. I wasn't wrong in adding it to my TBR, I got through it in just a day and I adored it!"The rain kept falling, falling, falling."If you're a fan of the movie like I am, this book is definitely worth the read. Told mostly
Beautiful book. Well written. Gorgeous story. Lovely illustrations. And, despite not normally being a quotey kind of person, I fell in love with this quote: "The rain kept falling, falling, falling.The sound of rain was everywhere.It plopped in the mud and splashed in the puddles, slithered down branches and tinkled from the leaf tips, a symphony of tiny notes playing and fading away endlessly."Such a delightful book to read
