Guri and Gura
Categories:Children's
Guri and Gura, a field mouse who loves cooking and eating, found a big egg in the forest. After thinking about whether to make fried eggs or fried eggs, I decided to make castella cake. But the eggs are too big to carry. So I decided to bring a frying pan and cook on the spot. The smell of baking castella attracts animals from all over the forest. Everyone's favorite Guri and Gura were born from this picture book.

Our name is Guri and Gura
What I like most in this city is eating and eating
Guri Gura Guri Gura
Guri and Gura went out to the forest singing. He found a large egg and decided to bake it, saying, "It's so big that even if you eat it from morning to night, there will still be some left over.'' Attracted by the sweet smell, the animals of the forest gather one after another. "I'm not stingy, I'll give you a feast, so wait.'' Now, it's done. When you remove the lid of the pot, fluffy yellow castella emerges.
If the egg is too big to carry, let's make it here. If you have any empty eggs left, make a car and ride it home. The two of them come up with fun ideas one after another and execute them with ease. In response to a reader's question, "Is there anything (Guri to Gura) that you're not good at?'' the author Rieko Nakagawa answered, "It's okay to fail or make mistakes. It's okay to try again.'' (From the picture book "Everything about Guri and Gura''). Guri and Gura's easy-going personality gently eases the reader's feelings.
And the thing that everyone is fascinated by is that "Kastera". No matter how much time passes, it will remain in my heart as a sweet, happy memory.
"Guri and Gura'' has been made into a series since this book, and you can see the two in action in various situations such as Christmas and swimming at the beach. (Shima Kadokura)
