Description

It is composed of text and illustrations perfectly tailored to the eye level of 6- to 7-year-olds, the age when children are just learning Hangeul and developing the habit of reading independently. By looking into the lives of great figures from their childhood, it is easy for children to relate to and is enjoyable. Furthermore, it helps them naturally understand great figures who lived in different eras and, through vicarious experiences, aids in character development. Composed of verified figures most respected by Koreans, the "Great Figures in Textbooks Before School" series consists of five Korean figures and five world figures. What exactly about these great figures is it that makes them respected by so many people to this day and become figures featured in textbooks? You can discover not only anecdotes about their extraordinary qualities from childhood but also fun stories from their early lives that you may not have known before. [The Quirky Little Painter Kim Hong-do] is the first work in this series; he is a representative genre painter of Korea whose name can easily be found in elementary school textbooks. The Real Commander Yi Sun-sin: Yi Sun-sin is a general who represents Korea. From a young age, he was a little boy who stood out with his exceptional leadership, acting as the "neighborhood boss." Although Admiral Yi Sun-sin passed the military examination at a later age than others, he built the Turtle Ship after endless contemplation and became an undefeated general achieving unprecedented victories in naval battles. However, behind his victories always lay his sincerity, his ceaseless contemplation, and his tireless efforts. This book entertainingly recounts Admiral Yi Sun-sin's journey from his childhood to becoming a military officer and a general defending the nation, tailored to a child's perspective.

My child likes it. It's a bit of a shame that there are so many stories about childhood.

As I write this post, today is Monday, January 24, 2022. It is the start of a new week. Perhaps because 2022 feels even busier than 2021... I am physically exhausted and have a headache, but I feel like I need to keep going. Although it may seem like a repetitive daily routine, our children are growing rapidly day by day. My second son, Berry, has already turned seven! Since he has passed six and entered seven, he often says these days, "Now that I'm seven..." I would like to introduce a

The text and illustrations are perfectly tailored to the level of children who have just learned Hangul and are developing the habit of reading independently. Even I found the biographies of great figures that were just long lists of text boring when I was young, but reading this as a picture book with my child was so much fun. If you only vaguely know that Yi Sun-sin was the person who built the Turtle Ship, this book looks into his life starting from his childhood, presenting it in a way that

One day, my child suddenly came home after listening to the song "100 Great People for Korea" and started singing along quite well. I wasn't one to miss this opportunity! Thinking this was the perfect moment, I immediately bought the book containing the song and showed it to them. They were incredibly interested and looked at it every single day until it was practically worn out. Of course, they memorized all the names of the figures as well! As this sparked their interest in great people, the

I bought this because my 6-year-old likes Yi Sun-sin. Since his childhood is covered more than his achievements and battles, he shows less interest compared to other books about Yi Sun-sin. Still, he likes it.
