The television series based on the Book of Sakura is wonderfully imaginative and centers on a fourth
grader named Kinomoto Sakura. She attends Tomoeda Elementary School and a mysterious book called The Clow forever changes her life. Sakura has an older brother, Touya, who makes her life difficult
with his constant teasing, but he really does care for her. Sakura's father, Fujitaka, works to provide for his family as an archaeologist at the local university. Touya's and Sakura's mother,
Nadeshiko, died when Sakura was only three years old so their dad has been taking care of them ever since.
The book starts out to be a very innocent story about a young girl named Sakura until her life is changed one day when she finds a magical book entitled The Clow. The day begins normally enough as Sakura attends grade school with her best friend, Daidouji Tomoyo, who has a penchant for Sakura and everything she does. Sakura stumbles upon The Clow as if by fate and breaks the seal of the book. Within the hollowed out book, Sakura finds a deck of magical cards called the Clow Cards. Each of the Clow Cards contain a special magic and a conscience all their own. She accidentally scatters all, but one Clow Card to the winds when she utters the word "Windy" from the first card she picks off the top of the deck. Immediately after, Kerberos, or Kero-chan, rises from The Clow book as if awakening from a deep slumber. Sakura finds out that Kero-chan, a doll-sized, angel-winged lion with an Osaka-dialect, is supposed to guard the Clow Cards from doing any harm to the world. With the help of Kerberos, Sakura is magically transformed into Card Captor Sakura whose mission is to capture all the Clow Cards that have been scattered. With the help of Windy, Sakura captures her first Clow Card, Fly
