The library, surrounded by house-shaped bookshelves, contains not only works by Eiko Kamono, but also children's books and picture books from around the world selected by Eiko herself, which encourage children's independence. In order to make the most of the books, the books are arranged on shelves without classification, allowing children to freely choose books and read their favorite books wherever they like.
