    This is an Asian, possibly Japanese, book with print on one side of book, double page, and a beautiful drawing of the character on the other side. The book is all one piece and folds up accordion style with a wooden cover on the front and back. It is in very good condition with no rips or missing pages. This item was from my Grandmother's house and my Grandfather was in the Navy during WWl, I believe, and it may have been brought back to the US at that time, or it could have been from a later trip to Japan.
