Tanoshiku Nokatsu Dekiru Nijushisekki Nurie(Japanese)

A coloring book of Japan's four seasons, built around the 24 solar terms of the traditional calendar. The pictures are by Masaru Anzai and show seasonal scenes such as a bush warbler on a plum branch, evening cicadas, maple trees and salmon swimming upstream. There are 48 pictures in all, two for each of the 24 solar terms. The back of each picture has short notes about that solar term. The 24 solar terms divide the year into 24 equal parts based on the movement of the sun, and each part has a name tied to the season. They were a guide for daily life in Japan when the old lunisolar calendar was in use.

Translated from the Japanese original.
