Iwamatsu was born September 21, 1908, in Nejima, Kimotsuki District, Kagoshima, and raised on the southern coast of Kyushu. His father was a country doctor who collected oriental art and encouraged his son to persue a career in art. After studying for three years at the Imperial Art Academy in Tokyo, Iwamatsu became a successful illustrator and cartoonist. At one point both he and his wife, Tomoe, went to jail for his opposition to the militaristic government. In 1939, they went to the United States to study art, leaving behind their son, Mako. After Pearl Harbor, Iwamatsu joined the US Army and went to work as an artist for the Office of Strategic Services. It was then that he first used the pseudonym Taro Yashima out of fear there would be repercussions for Mako and other family members if the Japanese government knew of his employment. He died in 1994.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"col-md-10 col-sm-9 col-xs-8\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"col-md-10 col-sm-9 col-xs-8\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eTarget Age: 5-8\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"col-md-10 col-sm-9 col-xs-8\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"col-md-10 col-sm-9 col-xs-8\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003ePuffin Books\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"col-md-10 col-sm-9 col-xs-8\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"col-md-10 col-sm-9 col-xs-8\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003ePub Date: September 30, 1976\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"col-md-10 col-sm-9 col-xs-8\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"col-md-10 col-sm-9 col-xs-8\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e7.25\"W \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"x-spacer\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003ex\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e 8.88\"H \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"x-spacer\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003ex\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e 0.16\"D \u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"col-md-10 col-sm-9 col-xs-8\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"col-md-10 col-sm-9 col-xs-8\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e40 pages\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"col-md-10 col-sm-9 col-xs-8\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"col-md-10 col-sm-9 col-xs-8\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003epaperback\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Penguin Random House","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53434936951082,"sku":"dco1793688860611","price":7.19,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0999\/2251\/0122\/files\/crow-boy-by-taro-yashima_1.jpg?v=1793688870","url":"https:\/\/pacificnorthwestfit.shop\/products\/crow-boy-by-taro-yashima","provider":"My Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
