Hello! This is Koiwai Yotsuba, Yotsuba Koiwai…um, YOTSUBA! Yotsuba moved with Daddy to a new house from our old house waaaaaaay over there! And moving’s fun ’cos people wave! (Ohhhh!!) And Yotsuba met these nice people next door and made friends to play with (one of ’em acted like one of those bad strangers Daddy told Yotsuba not to go with, but it was okay in the end). I hope we get to play a lot. And eat ice cream! And-and-and... oh yeah! You should come play with Yotsuba too!

The curious and curiouser Yotsuba moves to a new town with her dad. In the process of moving in, Yotsuba encounters things like swing sets and broken door handles, which all bring about a never-ending torrent of questions and shrieks of amazement. When she befriends her neighbors, they can't help but wonder where this strange little girl really came from, seeing how she's delighted by the most mundane, everyday things.

Ohhhhh! Yotsuba’s back! Today, Yotsuba was drawing Jumbo, okay? That’s Daddy’s REALLY, REALLY BIG friend. He’s real nice and I guess a big baby. But he’s too big to draw in Yotsuba’s sketchbook! So Yotsuba drew Jumbo on the street in front of our house! Cool, huh? But Ena’s friend Miura, who has wheels on her feet, said Yotsuba was bad at drawing…she’s wrong, right? RIGHT!?

In which Yotsuba learns many lessons on a variety of subjects-that she is (or isn't) a good artist, that revenge doesn't solve anything, that cakes come in many forms, that not all things are worth sweating over, that it's hard to teach other people to swim, and that giant eyes are not to be crossed.

Enjoy Everything! That's Yotsuba's motto! In this Eisner-nominated series, a little green haired girl delights in enjoying the things that the rest of tend to take for granted. A perfect series for kids of all ages.

YOTSUBA heeeeeere! Guess what, guess what!? Yotsuba is going to a flower store with Fuuka! Yotsuba’s gonna give flowers to everybody in the whole, wide world, even the police lady with her whistle that goes — PI! PI! PIPI! PI! PIPUUUUUUUU!!

In which Yotsuba learns even more lessons on a variety of subjects-that food should be stored in bags rather than left in one's pocket, that souvenirs are a good way to show you care, that a giant bouquet of flowers can be had for as little as 10 yen, that Heaven is full of flowers and good food, and that carnival games are harder than they seem.

*sniffle* Yotsuba thinks grown-ups are mean. Daddy plays all kinds of neat games with Yotsuba, but he ALWAYS WINS! Even when Yotsuba TELLS him to be paper in Rock-Paper-Scissors, he doesn’t listen! Even then! Yotsuba never, ever wants to be a big meanie grown-up, nuh-uh! But grown-ups get to buy ice cream all by themselves, so…um…maybe it’s okay to be a grown-up sometimes?

Yotsuba goes fishing! Grocery shopping! And learns about love! She even gets the bright idea to make her own newspaper! Unfortunately, for Fuuka, the Yotsuba Times lead story is all about her..and her embarrassing secret.

Yotsuba met a robot at Ena’s house! Betcha haven’t met one ever! It was THIIIIIS big — but not bigger than Jumbo or anything — and it ate money! Yotsuba’s never met anyone who ate money before! Maybe it gets more powers with more money!? Yotsuba should try giving it more money next time! Huh…what happens when money-eating robots get full? Do they have to go to the little robots’ room? Hmmmm…

Yotsuba encounters Cardbo! Lends a helping (hindering?) hand! Goes stargazing and even swimming! And starts an all out war with her dad's assistant who she mistakes for an intruder trying to break into their house?!

Yotsuba’s getting a biiiiike, Yotsuba’s getting a biiiiiike!! Didja know the wheels of a bike go round and round and round and round and round and round and round and round and round and round and round and round and roun — oh, Yotsuba’s getting dizzy... whoooooa...

It's the end of an endless summer, and Yotsuba is out to make the most of it. First, she'll go toe-to-toe with a cardboard robot, then help out the neighbors by eating their grapes and spearheading an impromptu trip to the beach. But when her ice cream is stolen by Yanda, Koiwai's understudy, Yotsuba may have to admit she's finally met her match!

Mooooo...! MOOOO...! Cows are neato! It’s fun pretending to be a cow! And milk comes from cows, so I bet they’re real nice too. ‘Cos milk is super-yummy, right?! Yotsuba thinks so! And milk comes in lotsa flavors, so cows must come in different flavors too. How else is there white milk and coffee milk and chocolate milk?! Then there’s the black and white cows, they’ve gotta make a super-secret special flavor, huh?! Yotsuba wants to know! Let’s go ask the cows at the ranch, Daddy! Come on!

SC, 208pgs, B&W

The ranch wasn’t fun, huh? But maybe festivals will be less funner?! (Yotsuba’s playing opposites, ha-ha!) Yotsuba got uninvited to Fuuka’s school for a culr…a clart…a cultural festival! And she didn’t promise Yotsuba there wouldn’t be CAKE! Yotsuba doesn’t want a cake as biiiiiig as Jumbo, nope!! You wouldn’t either, now would you?! Ohhh! And then, and then! There ISN’T gonna be a great big festival for the whole town to go to! And Yotsuba isn’t gonna work hard and help out there with Ena and Fuuka, nuh-uh! Not even for candy, nooooo way!

SC, 208pgs, B&W

Beep-beep-beep!
Yotsuba here, and riiiight on schedule! Every day is a fun day, and today’s gonna be even funner than the rest. We’re busy, busy, busy! We should write down a schedule so we don’t forget what we gotta do…like go to the bathroom! And go to the berry gair* store with Daddy! And try to fly! Omigosh, Yotsuba missed toilet time already! Noooo! What to do?! What to do?!

Yotusba loooves playing games!

When Daddy's the counter at hide-and-seek, he can never find Yotusba, "because I'm such a good hider!" And when we go to the park, Yotsuba is the best at swing-tag-shoe-races. Daddy says Yotsuba's just making up the rules as we go along, but Yotusba thinks Daddy's just a sour loser. But maybe Yotusba will let him win once in a while.

Say cheese! Say cheeeese!

Yotsuba’s got a shiny new camera! But this new camera is too cool for just Daddy’s silly poses. What else should Yotsuba take? Maybe the nice man at the restaurant who makes udon, or Shaggy Beard at the bike shop. But definitely not that dog down the street. He’s a little scary and . . . Oh no! Watch out, Juralumin!!!! WAHHHH!

Oops! Your shoe! Your shoe! Your shoe came untied!

But don't worry! Tora taught Yotsuba how to tie a bow like a butterfly! Now Yotsuba can tie Juralumin's ribbon aaaall by herself. Huh?

Why are Yotsuba's hands blue? Well, see, there was this really pretty blue paint - and Yotsuba thought Daddy would want his stuff to be really pretty blue too. Are Yotsuba's hands gonna stay blue forever and ever?
