Book Communities Create a New Cradle for Readers

Topic   Book Communities Create a New Cradle for Readers   2021.11.01   Different values and meanings are created through books. Books allow us to acquire knowledge. We are also enlightened by the teachings portrayed in them, and they sometimes even set the path for our lives based on this enlightenment.

Korean Authors   Writer Minha May you find strength and encouragement through picture books   2024.02.19   The 2023 Korea Picture Book Award chose K-picture books that will represent Korea to the world. Among the many winners, my eyes were drawn to a book that showed off unique ideas with a distinctly Korean touch. The book A Round of Tightrope Walking (Gloyeon) won the grand prize in the non-fiction category. As we read A Round of Tightrope Walking, which incorporates various elements of picture books and realistically depicts tightrope walking, we couldn’t help but smile as we imagined how excited children would be to read this book. Minha, the writer, creates a different kind of fun that goes far beyond the limits of books and paper. And since Minha says that picture books are like a shelter for her, we think her readers can also imagine and rest as much as they want through her books.
