Crossing the Snow and Other Tales

Miyazawa Kenji · 1921–1924 · translated by Valentin Sarić

Two children cross frozen snow and accept a little fox’s invitation to his school’s magic-lantern show.

Miyazawa Kenji’s talking woods and dancing deer reveal a countryside filled with humor, curiosity, beauty, and unexpected trust.

Three distinct tales appear across all five supplied entries, retaining duplicate copies of two works in full. Songs preserve their verse lines, with concise explanatory notes.
