My Great-great-great-great-grandfather
 Author/Illustrator/Photographer: Hasegawa Yoshifumi


【My great-great-great-great-grandfather】is a question posed by children. Who are my antecedents? What was their life like? From father, grandfather, and great grandfather to great-great-grandfather…...children get to know about their ancestors and wander in history, discovering a composite picture of vanished culture and heritage. Tracing back to primitive times, when children find out they are actually descendants of a monkey, another interesting and inspiring open-ended question pops up, “What will my descendant look like when I become a great-great-great-great-grandfather someday in future?”

If you have good eyes, you will find a snail, apart from the cat the little boy brings along, riding on his skateboard and going time travel together. When parents enjoy the story with the children, playing a mini game to spot the snail on each page will even add more fun to the family reading activity.
