110 Picture Books for Parenting Based on Temperament and Situation, Recommended by Director Lee Im-sook

A picture book parenting book by Im Sook Lee has been published for parents who find it difficult and awkward to read picture books to their children.
Director Im-Sook Lee, who has been meeting parents and children through picture books for over 20 years and providing counseling and treatment, has included stories about picture books, children's minds, and the relationship between children and parents based on questions she has received from parents.


It explains various situations that parents encounter while raising children and examines the child's psychology in each situation.
For each topic, we recommend 5-6 picture books and suggest stories to share with your child while reading the picture books.
We introduce picture book parenting methods that strengthen children's inner self and foster social skills, and also recommend picture books that comfort the hearts of parents who want to be good parents.
Rather than specifically problematic situations, it presents situations that parents commonly encounter while raising children to help with everyday parenting.
Rather than making parents feel a sense of crisis or guilt, Im Sook's unique warmth in giving them gentle comfort and advice is her strong point.

Into the book
Lying in bed, listening to and reading picture books in the warm embrace of mom and dad should be a time for children to relax and unwind from the day's fatigue, a time for healing to release any resentment in their hearts, and a time to recharge and recharge for tomorrow.

This is precisely why we read picture books over and over again.
A child wants to imprint his or her mother or father's love in his or her heart, so he or she asks to read the same book over and over again.
I hope you read this often until your faith in Mom and Dad's love becomes firm and solid.

Ask your child who is responsible for comforting his or her feelings of frustration.
If a child answers easily, it means that there is a stable object in the child's mind. If the child thinks for a long time or says there is no object, it may be disappointing for the parents, but it is a sad thing.
It's sad and lonely to not have anyone to trust and rely on when life gets tough.

If you love your child in every way, you must convey it in a loving way.
Even if it's a joke made out of love, the love isn't conveyed and only the hurt is conveyed.

It is not desirable for a mother to give up many things just because her child will not leave her.
He is such a precious and beloved child, but he also needs to grow up little by little and become a child who can accept separation.
Put aside your mother's tender heart for a moment.
Our child is strong enough to accept separation.

Where can we find the strength to confidently say "bye-bye" to a working mom in the morning? It starts with reaffirming a mother's love.
Then, you must give the child the love he or she wants.

When I'm so tired of living like a mother, my whole body feels weak and I don't want to move a finger, I wish someone would take care of me like a baby.

That's okay though.
Everything is okay.
When your mom is tired, don't try to do better.
Try putting your mother's work aside for a bit.
It's okay to put aside your desire to feed and clothe your child better for a moment.
There won't be any major problems if you can't prepare the supplies and homework you need to prepare every day for a while.
Thanks to all the sincerity and effort we have put in so far, our child is already growing well.
And sometimes, when the mother rests and keeps a suitable distance, the child's self-reliance is activated and the child finds a way to grow well on his own.

I have many worries and anxieties about raising a child, but the most important thing is that I am happy that I am becoming a mother.

First of all, one thing is clear: a child cannot be made to conform to his father.
I guess I should do what my child wants in the way I can.
A representative example other than physical play is reading picture books.
And some picture books are more enjoyable and exciting when read in a father's voice, with his unique strength and charm.

If you don't know what kind of seed it is, but you work hard to nurture it properly and diligently, and if you're grateful and happy even when watermelons ripen or morning glories bloom, what better parent could there be? People say being a good parent is difficult, but if you simplify things a little, it's actually quite easy.

Publisher's Review
“How can I raise my child well?”
The answers to the countless parenting concerns you face while raising a child can be found in picture books!


All parents want to raise their children well.
I want to be a good parent to my child.
I want to convey my parent's love to my child, show him that the world is interesting, and help him realize that he can overcome difficult and challenging situations in the end.
What can we do? To parents' concerns and wishes, author Lee Im-sook responds, "In such cases, pick up a picture book and read it with your child."
We all know that reading picture books to our children is good, but for parents who are at a loss as to which books to read, how to read them, and what kind of conversations to have with their children while reading, Im Sook Lee's picture book parenting book offers specific and warm comfort and solutions.


Im Sook Lee's Picture Book Parenting Method Based on Temperament and Situation

This book helps parents solve common parenting concerns they face in their daily lives through picture books.
For a child who is whining and not wanting to sleep, fighting with a younger sibling, or upset about a friend, reading a picture book to them is more effective than nagging or explaining things to them.
The author suggests reading picture books that reassure children who are afraid of sleep that their parents will always be there for them, and that show exciting things that can happen in their dreams.
For children who are upset about problems with friends, you can read picture books that teach them how to deal with bullying from friends, or picture books that teach them how to help and understand each other.


In particular, the author says that we must acknowledge each child's individual temperament and develop or complement their personality based on that temperament.
Nagging a timid child to be calm or telling a winning child to learn how to lose doesn't reach the child's heart.
Children who are fearful can find comfort in seeing other fearful children and adults in picture books, knowing that they are not alone, and can also realize the benefits of being fearful.
It's incredibly difficult to teach a child, who has a strong desire for power and achievement, that it's okay to lose, but picture books can help them experience what it means to truly win.


If you want to raise your child well and become a good parent,

This book also fully understands the feelings of parents who want to raise their children well.
The author says, “Everything that parents want to convey to their most precious children in the world is contained in picture books.”
If you want your child to become engrossed in picture books, to develop their imagination and creativity, and to grow into a child who knows the fun of learning and is curious, then reading picture books to them is the way to go.
It is much better to read picture books with your child that stimulate cognitive interest than to tell them a hundred times to study.
Reading picture books to children during infancy, the optimal period for imagination development, is a shortcut to fostering their creativity.

Picture books that are new to parents while raising their children are also a great comfort and help to them.
Children are so beautiful and raising them is rewarding, but there are times when parents are also very tired and struggling.
There are days when I doubt and feel unsure if I am doing a good job as a parent.
Director Lee Im-sook recommends picture books to such parents.
For parents who are angry at themselves for getting angry at their children today, I recommend a picture book that can help parents resolve their anger without hurting their children and understand their children's behavior.
When you're worried about whether you're raising your child well, we introduce a picture book that will help you put aside your greed and return to your original intentions.


Above all, the author emphasizes the importance of conversations with children while reading picture books.
If you want to improve your relationship with your child but don't know how, you can build a bridge with picture books.
By reading each of those stepping stones, parents will be able to understand their child's heart, support their child's dreams and imagination, and gain strength themselves.
Okay, let's start by choosing a picture book.
