Baobab focuses again on the orphaned eight-year-old Japanese boy from a century ago, Hiroshi.

A toy is stolen in the village, and Hiroshi is wrongly accused of its theft; also, his grandmother realizes that she will die soon and tells Hiroshi that an old friend of his father's is coming to fetch him and bring him to Tokyo. Meanwhile, on the other side of the globe, the burgeoning cartoonist Celestino is publishing in new comics in the Eco di Papassinas newspaper, but a racist right-wing group take over the paper. Baobab is the most ambitious of the "Ignatz" line, with a complex, globe-spanning series of narratives that explore the world of hope, dreams, and creativity.
