Noguchi Ujō (1882-1945), the poet of "Seven Little Ones" and "Red Shoes," printed far more children's songs in magazines than he ever collected. This volume translates, complete and year by year, the 265 uncollected songs first printed from 1919 to 1930, among them "Soap Bubbles" (Shabondama), "The Gold Beetle" (Koganemushi), "This Town, That Town" and "The Badgers' Music at Shōjōji."

With the poet's own notes, a translator's note and endnotes. AI-assisted translation.
