Tiny and brave-these are the two most striking characteristics of Issun Bo^shi. his mother had longed to have a child for so many years that she finally added "even if it is a very small one" to her wish. when the elderly couple did in fact bear a son, he turned out to be only one inch high. he was thus called Issun Bo^shi, Japanese for one-inch boy. although his parents raised him very lovingly, Issun Bo^shi realized one day that he would not grow any taller. he then left his home to set off on a journey to find his place in the world.
