About This Book
Ruri, the author who moved the hearts of 600,000 readers with Long, Long Night, the story of Norden, the last white rhino on Earth, and a young penguin hatched from an abandoned egg, returns with another story that stirs the heart. This is a tale passed from person to person over time, about the Olive Tree House, which has never once been closed over the years, the guardian "Nana Olive," a spotted dog, and the doorframe where the heights of those who lived there were marked.
The story begins with the recollections of a boy, now grown into a young adult, who sets out to find the Olive Tree House thirty years after a promise. Alongside him are those who accompany him on this journey. Where is the house that once served as a shelter when hope was scarce? Following his memories, he finds the house covered in green moss with walls crumbling in places. And astonishingly, as if no time had passed, the spotted dog and the bent olive tree he remembered are still there to greet him.
Inside the house, layered with the weight of time, are the cuckoo clock that shared the joys and sorrows of the home, the dining table halved by bombing, and the doorframe filled with height marks of those who once called this place "our home." The boy wishes to find "Nana Olive," the house's owner, but there is no record of her anywhere. Instead, he discovers an old notebook in the Olive Tree House. Each entry begins with "To Nana," a letter filled with longing from someone who calls themselves "the snot-nosed kid" to "Nana Olive."
