CLAMP originally began in 1989 as a twelve-member dōjinshi circle, but by 1990, the circle had diminished from twelve to seven. Of the remaining seven, Tamayo Akiyama, Sei Nanao, and Leeza Sei left the group during the production of the RG Veda manga. Other former members of CLAMP also included Soushi Hishika, O-Kyon, Kazue Nakamori, Yuzuru Inoue and Shinya Ōmi. Currently, there are four members in the group.
In 2004, CLAMP's 15th anniversary as a mangaka group, the members changed their names from Nanase Ohkawa, Mokona Apapa, Mick Nekoi, and Satsuki Igarashi to Ageha Ohkawa, Mokona, Tsubaki Nekoi and Satsuki Igarashi (her name is pronounced the same, but written with different characters) respectively. The August 2004 issue of Newtype USA, a magazine specializing in events of the anime and manga subcultures, reported that the members of CLAMP simply wanted to try out new names. In a later interview with Ohkawa, it was revealed that initially Mokona wanted to drop her surname because it sounded too immature for her liking, while Nekoi disliked people commenting that her name was the same as Mick Jagger's. Ohkawa and Igarashi, wanting to go with the flow of Nekoi's and Mokona's name changes, changed their names as well.
In 2006, they made their first USA public debut at Anime Expo in Anaheim, California. They were well received at the convention, with 6,000 fans in attendance at their panel.

My hardback copy has 207 pages.
I've had this for ages and decided to give it a re-read. Still cute, but I've always been a fan of CLAMP's artistry. Granted, this is more on the child-like side and is meant to be a picture book, target age children. There are images sporadically placed (not always per chapter) and it's largely dialogue driven. I can't attest to the English translation as I've never read it but at least in Japanese there is a distinction in speech/word choices to clarify who is speaking. I imagine that wasn't so easy to translate. The seasons (and various holiday traditions) are introduced to the title characters which was weirdly informative like the custom of Midsummer greetings (暑中お見舞い). I've definitely seen and admired those beautiful postcards in my many forays into various stationary stores but always assumed they were just seasonal variations. How wrong I was! Perhaps I'll send some out myself next year.
Additionally it would help readers if they have some knowledge of (or have read) series like Tsubasa Reservoir Chronicles, XXX-Holic, Card Captor Sakura, and Magic Knight Rayearth to perhaps get all of the character references within the story.

Clow and Yuko together, explaining everything to newly made Soel & Larg - Yue & Kerberos playing with them like older siblings - this is so adorable.
CLOW AND YUKO TOGETHER - seriously, this is all I need

"Mientras estamos aquí, en la Tierra, todos conocemos muchos tipos diferentes de personas. Y decimos 'adiós' a muchos tipos diferentes de personas también. Es algo que uno simplemente no puede evitar. Pero incluso si un día tengo que decir adiós a las personas que amo, seré feliz de haber podido conocerlas, creo."
Tsss, es muy interesante este multiverso de Clamp. Aunque en mi caso creo que los primeros capítulos de Holic siempre serán lo más interesante.
No siento que me vaya a hacer mega fan de Tsubasa y todas las demás visiones y realidades, o quién sabe. Pero este libro es padre, creo que me encantaría leerlo en japonés y ver si le entiendo ya que es para niños y no debe ser muy difícil para mis 4 años de estudiar el idioma.
Y las referencias como que es raro, o yo estoy acostumbrado a aventarme libros de 400 páginas para encontrar 1 o 2 referencias en los mundos de Stephen King, aquí a veces son demasiadas y a veces te dejan con ganas de más explicación.
Dentro de la historia, como que siento que está padre el libro pero habría sido mucho mejor haber leído ésto y luego ver el anime de Holic. Creo que no hubiera ignorado tanto a Mokona.
Las ilustraciones están mega geniales.

This is a children's book. I would appreciate if someone had just told me that. Beautiful images and almost no text at all. I don't know if the translation ruined it, but it's just silly. And if you don't know about Clamp's universe (XXXHolic, Tsubasa and a bit about Rayearth), you will be lost.
