Introduction When two girls move to the country to be near their ailing mother, they have adventures with the wonderous forest spirits who live nearby.

CHARACTER Totoro -- a giant furry thing ,a mixture of several animals: the Japanese version of raccoons, cats (the pointed ears and the facial expressions), and owls (the chevron markings on their chests and the "ooo"-ing sound they make with their ocarinas at night).

FLYING VEHICLE-2 Totoro uses the whirligig to fly.

REFLECT REALITY This movie is very true to life and makes it one of a kind.As the story unfolds, Mei’s sister and Mei get along with Totoro well. It is to live with nature that the movie wants to tell us.This story illustrates that there are always positive thigs worth living for:joy to be found and nature to be embraced.

SENTIMENT Among Miyazaki's movies, I like "My Neighbor Totoro" the best.It is one of his most popular animations. In my opinion, Totoro is the cutest character in this animation, and it is always enthusiastic about helping others. As for the music, it is quite easy for us to sing along with the songs when we first listen to them.
