内容简介：    

在12月31日的早晨，小田钻进了温暖的被炉（一种带有被子的加热桌），并宣布他计划熬夜到午夜迎接新年。这个故事以被炉为中心，细腻地描绘了这个家庭在这个特殊日子里发生的一切。艺术家采用从天花板向下的视角，记录了家庭的年末大扫除、准备新年传统食物，以及新年前夜吃荞麦面等习俗。尽管我们只能看到每个人的头顶，但生动的画作却能让人感受到每个人的表情和这个家庭里温暖的亲情。幽默风趣的插图中还隐藏着许多有趣的细节，等待读者去发现。  

On the morning of December 31, Kota slips into the kotatsu, a heated table with a quilt, and announces that he plans to stay up until midnight to greet the New Year. The story depicts this special day in the family’s life, with the kotatsu at the center. The artist takes an aerial view, gazing down from the ceiling as he follows the family’s year-end housecleaning, the preparation of traditional New Year’s dishes, and such customs as eating buckwheat noodles on New Year’s Eve. Although we can only see the top of each person’s head, the vivid paintings conjure up images of everyone’s expressions and the warm bonds that unite this family circle. The humorous illustrations contain many subtle details that are fun to discover.
