About Book

Bai Xina's breakthrough work after "Cloud Bread"
*This picture book won the Korean Publishing Culture Award, the highest award in Korea. The Korean Culture and Education Department recommended it as a "Good Education Children's Book".
The fusion of traditional clay sculpture and modern photography allows children to freely travel between the real world and the imaginary world. In the bathhouse, they encounter an imaginary playground, learning self-control while gaining courage, confidence, and comfort. In a very old bathhouse, there lives a fairy grandmother. She loves to tell stories and is especially good at playing games, but she's never had any yogurt...
On this day, the fairy grandmother met Xiaozhi, a child playing alone in the pool...
Renowned Korean picture book author Baek Hee-na combines traditional clay sculpture with modern photography, imbuing everyday life with a sense of magic. From a perspective that transcends time, age, and convention, this book guides children through a journey between the real world and the imaginary. The exaggerated forms and vivid expressions boldly challenge the stereotypes of body image in modern consumer society, allowing children to learn to appreciate life, accept themselves and others, and appreciate the truth, kindness, and beauty in life through reading. Through this story, set in a traditional bathhouse, the author hopes to awaken the cultural memories deep within everyone.
