There are many children who tend to become greatly ill because of the unprecedented disaster experiences. With hope to ease as much as possible worries and feelings of such children\u2019s minds by free expression with pictures and words and at the same time to show the world the real situation where the children are placed, I visited schools and refugees in the areas suffering from various types disasters such as the earthquake, tsunami and nuclear accident and asked the children to draw pictures and write messages on Japanese paper with the theme of \u201cwords that they want to express and tomorrow that they want to draw.\u201d<\/p>\n
