Perfect First Novel for me
This was the first true novel I read start to finish in Japanese. Though a childrens novel, I think it makes a fun read for all ages. It's so cute---I love it! It includes some flowery language and lots of onomotopoeia which is great for learning. I know I'll eventually read the rest of the series, though for now I'm moving on to some more challenging novels.
I'd recommend the 角川文庫 version for those comfortable with kanji as it removes comprehensive furigana. Though the 角川文庫 version doesn't include the illustrations along the text, it makes up for it with beautiful cover illustrations.
