Momoko Sakura is the creative genius behind the incredibly popular manga Chibi Maruko-Chan.

Three generations of Japanese and Asians have grown up watching, reading, and living with Chibi Maruko-Chan over the last 35 years.

This Sakura Limited Edition is part of the Moleskine 2024 Asian Collection. The collection unites three contemporary creatives from three diverse countries in a celebration of Eastern traditions: Japanese manga creator Momoko Sakura, Chinese artist Zeng Fanzhi, and South Korean typographic designer Ahn Sang Soo.
