Hobonichi Techo 2026 Original Book & Cover - Virginia Lee Burton: The Little House [ENG/A6/Jan Start]

Hobonichi Techo 2026 A6 Original Book & Cover Set

Virginia Lee Burton The Little House

The children’s book The Little House by American author Virginia Lee Burton is now available on a Hobonichi Techo.

The charming little house, with pink walls and a red chimney on a gray roof, sits atop a hill in the quiet countryside alongside apple trees that change to reflect each season.

But over time, the horse buggies change to automobiles, the area around the house develops with train tracks and skyscrapers, and crowds of people hurry throughout the town. The book has been a long-beloved children’s book since being published many decades ago.




The clear blue of the sky on the book cover provides a striking image on the techo cover. The hand-written letters also add a touch of warmth. The cover is made with a fine-grained polyester material.




The cover interior is mint green. The right-hand pocket represents summer, with lush trees and plants. The butterfly stoppers are a white faux leather, and the bookmarks are simple, light blue ribbons.




The cover spine is designed after the spine of the original book, with handwritten letters and daisies on a white background and red wavy lines along the edges.




The back of the cover depicts a smiling sun that had been on the back cover of the original book. The design around the sun simultaneously looks like warm rays of light and a daisy like the ones blooming around the little house. There’s also a picture hiding inside the pocket that had been in the endpaper of the original book.

The story of The Little House is a perfect fit for the Hobonichi Techo, as the book reminds us of the beauty of morning and night, and of the four rich seasons of spring, summer, autumn, and winter. We hope this techo fills you with the same warmth as the original book.
