Sachiko Parker lived in Japan from 2 to 12, so she can speak Japanese. Her Japanese name is Xing Zi. The postman played by Katsumi Takahashi is an original role in the film, but not in the original novel. The original novel of the same name won many literary honors, such as the 44th Academy Literature Award, the 28th Japanese Children's Writers Association Newcomer Award, and the 13 New Beauty and Literature Award. It is regarded as a classic in Japanese children's literature. The film was shot in early summer of 2007 in Kiyori, Yamanashi Prefecture, where there are pleasant natural scenery.
