Written by Woo, Jong-Young / illustrated by Baek, Nam-Won
This is a book about trees, which has the dual advantages as a story book and as an educational book.
With this book, you would realize how self-centered we are in treating forests and trees. The main character, an old doctor with big hands, vividly shows terrible conditions of trees that are in a cutthroat competition to survive. He presents how long a seed should wait to be a tree with so many tribulations, so that you can learn why you need to love and take care of forests and trees. It takes three years to transplant a tree to another place. A tree needs to get a surgery when it is sick. This book provides us with an interesting fact that we do not know that noxious insects actually help forests become healthy.

These illustrations boldly escape from the common trend of vegetation illustrations miniaturizing vegetations and highlight some extraordinary characters.
