Domo is a funny, square, fuzzy creature that began as the official mascot for a Japanese TV network in 1998. Since his introduction, he has become an international phenomenon along the lines of ` Hello Kitty, ` (a little more hipster-ish, though) with appeal to kids, pre-teens & twenty-somethings, skewing almost equally in popularity with male & female demographics. His big, toothy face has been plastered on scores of products, but never in a book. ”DOMO in the World” is a small-format board book featuring 15 photos of Domo out & about throughout the year, & each image is paired with quirky haiku (which is appropriate owing to his Japanese origins). Situations include flying a kite (or being flown by a kite in Domo`s case), TP`ing a house at Halloween dressed as a ghost, making romantic overtures to a fuzzy pillow which looks a lot like him & chowing down on a field of flowers. This fun production is a book, but packaged in a way to be merchy enough to carry on Domo`s merch-y success. ...
