KOBELCO Forest Fairy Tale Prize

デュエルビッツ 評判LCO Group collects stories about forests from students in elementary, junior high, and senior high schools across Japan with the aim of raising a generation of children who will carry with them an appreciation for all the many blessings that forests have to offer. The winning stories are transformed into picture books with illustrations by professional picture book authors. Around 2,000 sets of the finished picture books were donated to elementary schools, junior high and senior high schools, special needs schools, and public libraries in jurisdictions supported by local governments.

Chief Judge's Comments

永田 萠

Moe Nagata
Chair of the Judging Panel

Recently, there were many occurrences which made us notice importance of nature and the fact that we are very fragile and week in the nature. Themes of many pieces symbolize such background in recent years. I think that is one of the characteristics of 8th prize.

The winner of elementary school students' section tried to express the global warming, which is one of the most concerned problem all over the world with fantasy. It is difficult, so that I felt reliable.

Heavy rain was continued and forest was flooded last year, but the winning story of junior high school and high school students' section gave us the hope that forest will definitely recover as long as there are people who love the forest. I deeply appreciate that children get deep knowledge about forest, have hope for anything and provide brighter future.
