Google-Translation there on Pfipper says this:

In today’s Children’s Go Room, we distributed cute files given by Mr. Tororo (@tororo2048) to the children. Everyone was very happy and quickly solved Tsumego. Thank you very much Tororo!

Maybe check out “Tororo”’s account in case he posted it there?

Or … politely ask him?

Please let us know what happens, will you?
I’d immediately purchase a book with these cute comics if it had English text!
