These rare and beautiful Candy Candy Illustration books (Parts 1 & 2) published in 1977 and 1978 respectively, were drawn by the manga artist Yumiko Igarashi. On some of her gorgeous illustrations are japanese poems written by the author Kyoko Mizuki, reflecting her thoughts on the characters and what they were thinking and feeling in the drawings! Much THANKS and ARIGATO to Kayoko-san for translating these beautiful poems! Now for the first time, fans can enjoy reading some of the sweetest, more touching, and humorous poems for Candy and Terry! ^_^
