Director Hayao Miyazaki is a master storyteller and his films have all become classics of animation. There's no better way to preserve the magic of Howl and his flying castle than by adding this delightful volume to your home library. Earlier this year, VIZ Media released The Art of Howl's Moving Castle , a hardbound, prestige format book which exists as an essential companion to Hayao Miyazaki's latest animated classic. To further complement the movie-going experience, we are now proud to present the Howl's Moving Castle Picture Book , a companion publication wedding scene-by-scene film footage with character dialogue in one handsome volume. Based on the young-adult novel by British author Diana Wynne Jones, Howl's Moving Castle reflects on a wondrous time when science and magic captured the spirit of 19th century Europe. The story of Howl's Moving Castle is the story of a young girl who is magically transformed into a 90-year-old woman. Undaunted by this curse, her continuing adventures introduce her to the vainglorious wizard Howl and his curious castlemates. Two years ago, VIZ Media released a similar book inspired by Spirited Away , the movie which garnered an Academy Award for director Hayao Miyazaki. Another picture book for My Neighbor Totoro is planned for later this year. Now, add Howl's Moving Castle to this list of must-have movie books. Director Hayao Miyazaki is a master storyteller and his films have all become classics of animation. There's no better way to preserve the magic of Howl and his flying castle than by adding this delightful volume to your home library.

I bought this for my best friend and ended up buying one for me. It’s a must have for a HMC or any Ghibli fan. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Lovely companion to a great movie *by E***H on March 19, 2016* A great movie companion book, but really, if you are in love with the movie, please read the original book by Diana Wynne Jones Howl's Moving Castle , or really the whole series, her fantasy is even more amazing and intruiging than the Miyazaki movie. This book is full of pictures, set up with minimal text like a graphic novel. My 2 year old and 11 year old love this all the same, and love having the stills of the movie to look through all the details in the artwork. Fairly heavy, and high quality all around. Would be a great gift. ## Frequently Bought Together - Howl's Moving Castle Picture Book - Miyazaki's Spirited Away Picture Book - Kiki's Delivery Service Picture Book --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.com.au/products/1343228-howls-moving-castle-picture-book](https://www.desertcart.com.au/products/1343228-howls-moving-castle-picture-book) --- *Product available on Desertcart Australia* *Store origin: AU* *Last updated: 2026-09-10*
