Korean Folktales for Children

Experience the wisdom and humour of Korean folklore in this vibrant new collection of ten traditional stories. Julie Kim’s expressive watercolour paintings burst with magic, warmth and cultural detail, while her retellings are lightly updated to appeal to modern kids. Memorable characters like a tree that comes to life to repay the kindness of an old farmer convey gentle lessons about the importance of generosity, honesty and independent thinking. Families and educators will want to share this beautiful bilingual collection with heritage language learners and young readers of any background.
