The 100-story house

One day Tochi, a child who loves to observe the celestial firmament, receives a mysterious invitation in the mail to the top of a 100-story house. Intrigued, Tochi enters the building and, climbing the endless stairs, meets its friendly tenants one after the other. The first ten floors are the kingdom of mice, the next ten are home to squirrels, then come frogs, ladybugs and so on. On the hundredth floor Tochi finally finds the spider queen, who invites him to observe the stars through the telescope. A magical moment for the child, who seems to touch the sky. The 100-story house is an enchanting book that opens, counting gradually, vertically. Each double page presents a section of ten floors of the house, with all the teeming life that takes place inside them: a hundred irresistible scenes to be observed!
