Book Information & Summary
Written by Goh, Gyu-Hong / illustrated by Kim, Myung-Gohn
We see a lot of trees around us. But, what do we know about those trees?
Knowing trees do not just mean knowing the name of the trees.
It means, on the contrary, understanding the history of human beings.
Although people of today can get the knowledge of trees only with the help of pictorial books, people of the past did not need such books for they just naturally knew the trees. Our children have no choice but to consult the books, because their daily lives are largely separated from the nature. However, most of such books are for adults and filled with jargons, which makes it very hard for the children to understand it.
This book was written in easy languages so that our children may understand the trees more easily. It contains the origins of the trees' names, the legends on them, and their usages. It focuses only on such trees which we encounter day by day so that our children may get very familiar with the trees they see around them.
The illustrator went through a great deal of efforts in accurately describing the trees. He spent two years in drawing the 187 pictures. In addition, the fascinating designs helps the children to learn about the trees more effectively.
