The book includes artwork from Fukushima elementary school students regarding their emotions following the 3.11 Triple Disaster. It is divided into sections: how they saw the sea, what it would look like to play with friends again, what a safe, peaceful hometown looks like, what their hometown would look like if they had magical powers, and what the future of their hometown looks like. Most of these sections are separated by narrative context about the incident, shared testimonies of the children, and information about how the images were collected.

Content Warning

ARVAS is an aggregator of archival resources. ARVAS does not have control of the descriptive language used in our members’ finding aids.

Finding aids may contain historical terms and phrases, reflecting the shared attitudes and values of the community from which they were collected, but are offensive to modern readers. These include demeaning and dehumanizing references to race, ethnicity, and nationality; enslaved or free status; physical or mental ability; religion; sex; and sexual orientation and gender identity.

Many institutions and organizations are in the process of reviewing and revising their descriptive language, with the intent to describe materials in more humanizing, inclusive, and harm-reductive ways. As members revise their descriptive language, their changes will eventually be reflected in their ARVAS finding aids.
