4th Digital Ehon Award: Special Jury Prize (Koji Ishikawa Award)

[Let's Take a Look at the Winners of the 4th Digital Ehon Awards! For the Judges' Special
Award (Koji Ishikawa Award), Let's Head to a Market in the Philippines!]

"A Day in the Market," created by Adarna House, Inc. (Philippines), won the Special Jury Prize (Koji Ishikawa Award) at the 4th Digital Ehon Awards. This story is about a little girl who goes to the market with her mother. For the girl, the market is a fascinating place full of interesting things for sale.

I also love the artistic style, which captures the unique atmosphere of the Philippines. It’s one of my favorite works.”

Born from a paper picture book, this Digital Ehon uses interactive features, animations, and music—all made possible by the unique capabilities of digital media—to deliver a rich and expressive experience, allowing readers to better appreciate the cultural context and atmosphere.

It’s currently on display at the “Worlds Expanded Through Digital Ehon” exhibition at Area Benesse Aoyama, so be sure to stop by!
