Commentary tucked inside the book

This year marks the 20th anniversary of Shinta Cho's passing.
This book is a collection of short, anecdotal fairy tales by Cho, a picture book author and manga artist who created many works!!?

Although it is called an "aquarium," it is different from your average aquarium. The sea creatures just decide to leave the aquarium on their own and go out. Try reading it while imagining the punchline.

Postscript

The subtitle says "What-is-this Fairy Tale Hall," and it is full of the unique humor of Shinta Cho. It contains 17 stories with bizarre developments.
I hope this serves as a bridge from picture books to fairy tales.
