About

A typhoon originating in the southern ocean is heading toward Japan. This is a fishing port facing the Pacific Ocean. A reddish-black sunset signals the arrival of the typhoon. The next morning, black clouds fly toward the eye of the typhoon at great speed. Dragon rolls also occur, wind and rain intensify, and the storm surge ....... The drama of a typhoon from its birth to its decline is relayed live from two perspectives: from the sky and from a fixed point on the ground. Based on meteorological evidence, the entire picture of a typhoon is captured. This is a picture book that allows the reader to "experience typhoons" through powerful illustrations.
