Baku Chan is a young tapir emigrated to Tokyo, Earth all the way from their home planet, the distant Star of the Tapirs. Once they arrive, they find Earth a strange and alien, yet somehow familiar, world full of surprises. With the help of their newfound friend Hana they navigate the various challenges, uncertainties, as well as the humorous and beautiful moments of their new life as an immigrant. Set in a world that's a looking glass reflection of our own, and drawn in the wake of the escalating global politics of the 2010s, Masumura Jushichi's timeless tale was awarded the 21st Japan Media Arts Festival's New Face Award in 2018.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Jushichi Masamura\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1953629512\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781953629517\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Glacier Bay Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/01\/2026\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 64\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback","brand":"Jushichi Masamura","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48801399406847,"sku":"9781953629517","price":16.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/baku-chan-jushichi-masamura-9781953629517","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
