[icon="8.png"]H-h-hello, I'm
the receptionist
at the library.
[page]
My name is
Maria. ...Nice
to meet you... [close]
1 0x6C:
[icon="8.png"]The library is
closed on
Mondays. [close]
2 0x98:
[icon="8.png"]I'd be happy if
you visited the
[page]
library between
jobs. [close]
3 0xDC:
[icon="8.png"]H-h-hello. [close]
4 0xF0:
[icon="8.png"]H-h-hello, how
are you?... [close]
5 0x114:
[icon="12.png"]Do you like
books? It's just
[page]
that you come
here so often... [close]
6 0x160:
[icon="8.png"]We restore books
here. Old books
[page]
deteriorate so
rapidly. [close]
7 0x1A8:
[icon="13.png"]Sorry there
aren't many
books...I wish
[page]
the library
could hold more. [close]
8 0x1FC:
[icon="8.png"]The library will
be closed from
[page]
tomorrow through
the 10th. [close]
9 0x244:
[icon="8.png"]It feels good to
put the books
[page]
away in order on
the shelves. [close]
10 0x290:
[icon="8.png"]Isn't it great?
This book was
written long
[page]
before we were
born, and it
[page]
will remain long
after we're
gone. [close]
11 0x310:
[icon="8.png"]I often go to
the mountains on
holidays. I look
[page]
at insects and
draw pictures. [close]
12 0x370:
[icon="8.png"]Don't you get
excited reading
books about
[page]
places and
creatures you've
never seen? [close]
13 0x3D4:
[icon="8.png"]Old books are a
little dusty and
smelly...but I
[page]
feel somehow
drawn towards
them. [close]
14 0x434:
[icon="8.png"]Maybe I like
books because I
can get wrapped
[page]
up in my own
world.
[icon="13.png"]I'm not to good
[page]
at talking with
people. [close]
15 0x4B4:
[icon="13.png"]I wish I could
talk directly
[page]
...like Ann or
Karen... [close]
16 0x4F4:
[icon="13.png"]I don't like to
argue and get
hurt by other
[page]
people's words.
But it's no good
if you don't
[page]
express your own
opinions, right? [close]
17 0x58C:
[icon="13.png"]It's no good not
being able to
[page]
clearly say what
you want to say.
[page]
I should change
my ways, don't
you think? [close]
18 0x60C:
Yes, change.
You're fine. [close]
19 0x62C:
[icon="14.png"]......I, I'm
sorry. I've
[page]
never spoken so
forthright
before. [close]
20 0x678:
[icon="12.png"]I guess I was
hoping deep down
that you'd say I
[page]
didn't have to
change. You need
tremendous
[page]
courage to
change your
personality. [close]
21 0x710:
[icon="11.png"]Thank you for
listening to me
talk all the
[page]
time. I'll try
my best to be
more positive. [close]
22 0x778:
[icon="13.png"]...It's easy to
give up without
trying. I will
[page]
quit running
away. [close]
23 0x7C8:
[icon="13.png"]Oh, I'm sorry.
When did you
come? I was
[page]
wrapped up in
the story. [close]
24 0x818:
[icon="8.png"]I love the form
of a book.
[page]
Even if in the
future there is
no need for
[page]
paper, I hope
books keep their
same form. [close]
25 0x89C:
[icon="8.png"]It's nice to
read outside on
a sunny day. In
[page]
the shade of a
tree, of course.
[page]
The sunlight's
not good for
your eyes. [close]
26 0x928:
[icon="8.png"]I like the
beginning of the
year. There is a
[page]
sense of tension
and I feel
renewed. [close]
27 0x98C:
[icon="8.png"]In the spring, I
often get drowsy
while I'm
[page]
reading. [close]
28 0x9D0:
[icon="8.png"]I always plan to
do all sorts of
things during
[page]
the long summer
vacation. But I
never end up
[page]
doing anything
out of the
ordinary. [close]
29 0xA68:
[icon="8.png"]I also like
reading books at
bed time. But
[page]
sometimes I fall
asleep while
reading. [close]
30 0xACC:
[icon="8.png"]I think the Fall
is a good season
for reading,
[page]
since the nights
seem longer. [close]
31 0xB28:
[icon="8.png"]Winter is cold
and I feel
invigorated.
[page]
Maybe it's also
because it's the
end of the year. [close]
32 0xB98:
[icon="8.png"]Winter is very
quiet, so it is
[page]
the best season
for reading. I
[page]
like to make tea
and read books
by the fire. [close]
33 0xC18:
[icon="8.png"]The year will
end soon. Was
[page]
this...a good
year for you? [close]
34 0xC5C:
[icon="8.png"]Are you off
today? [close]
35 0xC78:
[icon="8.png"]Rain makes me
feel a little
gloomy. [close]
36 0xCA4:
[icon="13.png"]I don't like the
rain because
[page]
books get damp
and musty. [close]
37 0xCEC:
[icon="8.png"]I don't like the
rain, but I
[page]
appreciate what
a blessing and a
gift it is. [close]
38 0xD48:
[icon="8.png"]I like the snow.
It's beautiful
and so peaceful. [close]
39 0xD84:
[icon="8.png"]When the ground
is covered in
[page]
snow it becomes
so bright
[page]
outside. I heard
that people in
the old days
[page]
read books with
this light. [close]
40 0xE1C:
[icon="9.png"]Hi. I've gotten
pretty used to
the dog. Right,
[page]
Taro? [close]
41 0xE60:
[icon="8.png"]I'm off today,
so I came to
collect insects.
[page]
[icon="9.png"]I wonder why
insects have
[page]
such lovely
shapes. [close]
42 0xED0:
[icon="8.png"]Popuri is
pretty, like a
butterfly. I'd
[page]
feel more
confident if I
[page]
were more like
her. [close]
43 0xF38:
[icon="8.png"]I'm watching a
dung beetle.
[page]
[icon="9.png"]Look how
skillful it is.
[page]
I could watch it
for hours. [close]
44 0xF9C:
[icon="8.png"]The mountain has
lots of trees,
[page]
and the river
water is clean,
[page]
so there are
many insects. [close]
45 0x1008:
[icon="8.png"]Visiting the
mountain
[page]
refreshes my
spirits. [close]
46 0x1040:
[icon="8.png"]What? Climb a
tree? ...Sure I
[page]
can. Every kid
who lives here
can.
[page]
[icon="9.png"]If you can't
climb trees, you
can't catch
[page]
beetles and
cicadas. [close]
47 0x10DC:
[icon="8.png"]The mountains
are beautiful in
the fall. I
[page]
never tire of
looking at them,
year after year. [close]
48 0x1148:
[icon="8.png"]If you keep
you're finger
[page]
up, a dragonfly
will come and
perch on it.
[page]
[icon="9.png"]Lovely, isn't
it. [close]
49 0x11B4:
[icon="8.png"]Hello [reg=0].
[page]
I've come to
draw a picture
today.
[page]
[icon="12.png"]It's like a
diary. If I draw
I can remember
[page]
what happened
today. [close]
50 0x123C:
[icon="8.png"]It's like the
winter is the
time to prepare
[page]
things. As if
plants, insects,
[page]
even people are
slowly gathering
energy. [close]
51 0x12C8:
[icon="8.png"]Oh, hi [reg=0].
[page]
[icon="9.png"]When children
find an insect,
[page]
they are as
happy as if they
just found a
[page]
treasure. Cute,
isn't it? [close]
52 0x1350:
[icon="13.png"]The sky is
getting dark.
[page]
Let's go home
before it starts
to rain. [close]

uhmmm...errr...

it. [close]

[icon="8.png"]The Spirit
[page]
Festival will be

[page]
evils and gives
you blessings
for next year. [close]

66 0x178C:
[icon="8.png"]I was never any
good with dogs.
[page]
But now I'm OK
with them. [close]
67 0x17D4:
[icon="15.png"]I guess I've
gotten a little
used to it. [close]

71 0x1864:
[icon="8.png"]Yesterday was
terrible. The
library is so

old, I was
worried it would
blow away. Is

your farm all

going to do? ...
[page]
I'm so forgetful
lately... [close]
102 0x1F84:

Don't worry. [close]

[icon="13.png"]But......... [close]
107 0x20BC:
[icon="8.png"]I have to worry
about food, too.

Because the baby

from my body
now. [close]

[page]
less than

116 0x236C:
[icon="13.png"]They say you can
Understand
babies by the
[page]
way they cry.
But I can't
figure it out.
[page]
What should I
do? [close]
117 0x23E8:
[icon="8.png"]They say babies
are very
[page]
sensitive about
their
surroundings. [close]
118 0x2434:

feel uneasy, the
baby feels
[page]
uneasy and

I'll try my best
not to cry. [close]

[icon="13.png"]I'm sorry I'm

takes after you. [close]

[icon="8.png"]I'm sorry I've
been so focused
on the baby. [close]
123 0x25C8:
[icon="8.png"]The baby has
begun to smile a
lot. I wonder if
[page]
it is looking at
anything. [close]
124 0x2620:
[icon="12.png"]I feel like the
baby is talking
...Hee, hee,
[page]
it's a bit too
early, isn't it. [close]
125 0x2680:
[icon="8.png"]Honey, look at
this. A tooth is

the time. [close]
128 0x276C:
[icon="9.png"]The baby is
quiet when I
read him a book. [close]
129 0x27A0:
[icon="8.png"]I wonder if
[reg=4]
[page]
understands
words. Probably
not yet. [close]
130 0x27E0:
[icon="8.png"]I hope the baby
picks up words
[page]
fast and learns
to talk and read
books. I want to
[page]
talk with
[reg=4] soon. [close]
131 0x2858:
