In the beautiful mountains of Akita stands GLASS STUDIO amato, run by Mr. Komatsu and the shiny-nosed dog who loves him—MUCO!! Muco dreams of the day when Mr. Komatsu will become a dog, too, but in the meantime she spends her days chewing up towels, jumping in the pond, and inventing new games…all called “Komatsu”! Based on a real person, a real dog, and a real glass studio, there’s something here for everyone—even cat lovers! (Disclaimer: no actual cats are featured in this volume)
