| Publisher Description: A touching, character-rich vision of an intriguing new world. Reads R to L (Japanese Style), for T audiences. Mitsu has just started working as a window washer, a dangerous job that five years earlier led to the loss of his father. As Mitsu struggles with being the new guy--making mistakes, struggling to keep up, petty workplace resentments--he also discovers the simple pleasures of befriending his coworkers, enjoying time off and getting to know his absent father through the eyes of his colleagues. |
