A while ago--Newtype Magazine--the offical anime and manga magazine rated this as a number one manga. ^_^ While Yotsuba! remains fairly simple, the essence of story telling is not lost. Its nice to see a book that can deliver without having to be overly complex. Yotsuba! follows the antics of a small three/four year old girl who has just moved into a new house. She is prone to causing mischief but never means any harm. This book is cute and perfectly allows the reader to see the world though the eyes of a child. Much like CLAMPS Chobits though, there is something darker lurking underneth the plot about Yotsuba's past.
I highly recommend this book to manga and non-manga fans alike.
