Prize Comment

Thank you for chosing as such a honorable prize this time. Becoming a picture book writer is my dream since when I was a litte kid. I’m glad to step ahead to my dream with this prize. It is so exciting for me to think that a picture book which i drew become an electric novel, and many children loves Sgt. Keroro will enjoy the book with learning about a surprise and an impression.
