Hobonichi Cover and Book - A6 Original 2026 - Virginia Lee Burton: The Little House

Includes Cover and dated 2026 Original book

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.
