If you love Studio Ghibli as much as we do come check out our mini display. We have books about Studio Ghibli, books that inspired the movies, and books in a similar mood to the films. Why do we love the Studio Ghibli films so much? Besides the kawaii aesthetic and nostalgic feel, the films address some serious issues like the effects of war, humans' impact on the environment, and growing up. Though these are universal themes, you can also view these films as a way to learn more about Japanese culture as they draw on folk tales, history, and religion.
Along with the books you can check out, we also have a limited number of Studio Ghibli buttons and stickers.
Here are a few of the books that inspired the movies:
