I am holding hands with my family in front of my house. In order to restore Japan, coming together as a nation, is the most important thing. I value bonding, everyone is connected and this is important.

Medium: Paint, colored pencil, crayon

I have a father, mother, grandmother and older brother. My grandmother is very kind. I like watching TV. I like Omuraisu (fried rice in omelet), but I don’t like green pepper and bitter gourd. When I grow up, I want to own a cake shop.

Dear Friends of America,

Thank you for the wonderful pictures. I was delighted to see your heart-felt images. I was surprised to find that pictures from Japan are different from the ones from U.S. Thank you for the warm messages. After receiving them, I sensed that no matter where we were, our hearts are connected somehow and somewhere. Thank you very much!
