Taro Mirua has produced many picture books for babies with beautiful drawings and simple stories. Many readers have his book Kuttsuita (Things that stick together; Kogumasha). Having been featured in both the Bologna Illustrator’s Exhibition and the Bratislava Worldwide Picture Book Illustration Exhibition, he is a picture book creator with a global reputation.

The protagonist this time is El the baby elephant. Diaper-aged El may be big, but he’s definitely still a baby. This series aims to push the cuteness and humor of an elephant baby living a human baby lifestyle.
