Kabamaru Furoshiki Dragon Dance

Description

Kabamaru (Round Hippo) is a character created by Japanese artist Hajime Okamoto. Kabamaru and his pals get into all kinds of mischief.

Okamoto is famous for his drawings of six different cats, the most memorable of which is Kabamaru,who is always drawn as the largest cat in all of his multi-cat paintings. Kabamaru is the leader of the group, looking out for his friends. Kaba in Japanese means “hippo” and maru means “round.” He’s named that because he’s a bit of a slowpoke. Kabamaru made his debut in 1998 and a picture book about him was published in 2003.
