Book Review: Animal Land

Animal Land by Makoto Raiku

It's a whole new world where the only inhabitants are animals. Well, until Monoke, a tanuki, stumbles upon a baby human! While having no sharp teeth or claws surely needed in such a world, the child does have the ability to speak and understand all the different animals. The tanuki are a fun and silly bunch, yet it is still survival of the fittest. They are usually the target prey of many animals such as wildcats, wolves, and lions.

A cute manga with fun characters. Rated by Kodansha Comics as Ages 13+.
