Long ago, a glowing peach came floating down a mountain river - and inside was a surprise that would change everything.
A kind old couple discovers a baby boy inside an enormous peach and names him Momotarō, the Peach Boy. He grows up brave and gentle, loved by all. But far across the sea, on the dark island of Onigashima, fearsome oni demons are causing great suffering. Momotarō sets off on a journey to stop them - joined by a loyal dog, a clever monkey, and a proud pheasant.
With courage, kindness, and the help of true friends, can one boy change the world?
Momotarō The Peach Boy is a beautifully illustrated bilingual retelling of one of Japan's most beloved folktales, presented in both English and Japanese. Perfect for young readers ages 7-12, language learners, and families who love classic stories from around the world.
