"This engaging series of childhood recollections tells about an ideal school in Tokyo during World War II that combined learning with fun, freedom, and love. This unusual school had old railroad cars for classrooms, and it was run by an extraordinary man-its founder and headmaster, Sosaku Kobayashi-who was a firm believer in freedom of expression and activity.

She attributes her success in life to this wonderful school and its headmaster. The charm of this account has won the hearts of millions of people of all ages"-- "Tetsuko Kuroyanagi (born 1933) is a renowned Japanese actress, talk show host, and author. She is best known internationally for her book "Totto-Chan: The Little Girl at the Window," a memoir of her experiences as a child in an alternative school in Tokyo during World War II. The book has been translated into multiple languages and is one of the best-selling books in Japanese history. In addition to her writing, Kuroyanagi is a celebrated television personality in Japan.
