Satsuki, her younger sister Mei and their father have just moved to their new home in the countryside, where grand adventures await them. One day while playing outside in the garden Mei encounters a small creature and decides to follow it.

The two sisters befriend the gentle spirit and are soon introduced to a world more fantastical than they could ever imagine, from playing with soot spirits to meeting a Catbus, to flying through the air and even making the trees grow. However when Mei disappears, Satsuki must call on the help of her new friends if she wants any hope of being able to find her sister...

The family presented in this manga is not your idealized perfect model family, but it is of a simple, ordinary and happy family that, although subtly existing amongst us, can be felt by everyone. Through the author’s observations of everyday family life, readers will, while reading this book, think back to their own mothers and think, “My mother was this kind of person too!” or “This type of thing happens in my family too!” It is because of this nostalgia that this manga has received much popularity in Japan and many other countries.
