The Dancing Village by Lee Hyun-ju, is about a young boy named Cheoyong who has a talent for dancing and has a dream of being noticed and famous in the world. Unfortunately, he met a tragic and untimely death. Only the villagers were keeping his memory. The story shows how the dignity of a human being was devastated under rapid urbanization. The third story, Ten Fingers by Yoon Suk-joong is composed of an amusing anecdote about a young boy Yeongi who got hurt his one finger. For example, Yeongi couldn't tie a shoestring, or he spilt teacher's ink on the desk. Readers can sympathize with the young boy and the situation. The personified ten fingers stimulate the reader's imagination. Included are nine songs and poems that have been very popular in Korea since the 1920s. The works such as Springtime Outing (bomnadeuri) by Yoon Suk-joong and Half-Moon (bandal) by Yoon Kuk-young were made to give hopes and dreams to the blossoming children in the tragic situation of war. The book includes these songs, poems, and stories which have been beloved for a long time in Korea, so it is to be recommended for men and women of all ages as they cultivate intergenerational understanding and culture.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Korea in the early 1800s, news from the countryside reached the king by means of signal fires. On one mountaintop after another, a fire was lit when all was well. If the king did not see a fire, that meant trouble, and he would send out his army. Linda Sue Park's first picture book for Clarion is about Sang-hee, son of the village firekeeper. When his father is unable to light the fire one night, young Sang-hee must take his place. Sang-hee knows how important it is for the fire to be lit-but he wishes that he could see soldiers . . . just once. Mountains, firelight and shadow, and Sunhee's struggle with a hard choice are rendered in radiant paintings, which tell their own story of a turning point in a child's life.
