In the beautiful mountains of Akita stands GLASS STUDIO amato, run by Mr. Komatsu and the shiny-nosed dog who loves him--MUCO!!

Muco dreams of the day when Mr. Komatsu will become a dog, too, but in the meantime she spends her days chewing up towels, jumping in the pond, and inventing new games...all called "Komatsu"! 
Based on a real person, a real dog, and a real glass studio, there's something here for everyone--even cat lovers! (Disclaimer: no actual cats are featured in this volume)
