She attributes her success in life to this wonderful school and its headmaster.\n\nThe charm of this account has won the hearts of millions of people of all ages and made this book a runaway bestseller in Japan, with sales hitting the 4.5 million mark in its first year.\u003cbr\u003eASIN: 1568363915\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: BVV.1568363915.A\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Acceptable\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Kuroyanagi, Tetsuko|Iwasaki, Chihiro|Britton, Dorothy\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: Mass market paperback in ACCEPTABLE condition.
