Cute Translated Tale

"I think 3-4 stars really but I rounded up because there is a talking cat and a great love of books. Rintaro is raised by his dear grandfather in an old bookstore selling used books. He is mourning the loss of his grandfather when a tabby cat appears and sends him on a mission to save books. I love Rintaro’s love of books and the things he says about the power we find in books. Really a cute story ["

A cat and a boy attempt to "save'"books from those who don't appreciate them.

""When book lovers talk about books their faces seemed to light up." Rintaro Satsuki had been raised by his grandfather, a man who loved books. Happily, Rintaro loved books too. Following his grandfather’s sudden death, Rintaro is left to care for his grandfather’s used book store. He thinks of himself as a “hikikomori” essentially an introvert, with no friends. To his surprise, a couple of students from school stop by to check on him and, more surprisingly, a talking cat appears at the store. The cat “Tiger” is seeking Rintaro’s assistance in saving books that have been imprisoned and need to be rescued. Doubtful of the cat, yet impressed by his confident style, Rintaro agrees to try to help. "'Books have tremendous power’ was his grandfather’s mantra. There are timeless stories, powerful enough to have survived through the ages. Read lots of books like these—they’ll be like friends to you. They’ll inspire and support you. They teach us how to care about others. Empathy - that’s the power of books.” A book about books, and a cat, what’s not to like? It’s like catnip for the soul. This book is similar to nearly every book that I have read that was translated from Japanese to English in that the wording doesn’t flow as easily as I would have liked. None the less, although a bit awkward, the story - the lesson of loving books, learning from books, the value of books and what they can teach you, and books opening your mind to other points of view were well worth the read. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ An especially timely read in this time of book banning.
