If we think deeply about our choices and then act on them, it will be meaningful in itself, regardless of the outcome.

Like Queen Wu, your life is your own making.
I hope that you will become people who actively move forward and create a happy life even when faced with difficult situations.

Thanks to courageous figures like Gu Jin-cheon, Silla was able to protect its territory and develop a brilliant culture.
Gu Jin-cheon's choice saved countless people and changed history.

After much deliberation, Lee Yi decides to once again pursue the path of a Confucian scholar.
During his wanderings, Lee was not simply suffering.
He had time to reflect on himself and grow.

Even if it seems like throwing an egg at a rock, why not give it a try? A miracle might just unfold for us.

Publisher's Review
★ Korea's #1 history teacher, Choi Tae-seong's 『The Usefulness of History for Children』, this time on 'Life'!
★ Enthusiastic praise from 22 current teachers!
“All the wisdom that can change a child’s life is in history!”
The 'Life Edition' of 'The Usefulness of History for Children' returns with more depth and fun!
Whether children or adults, we all live with our own worries and difficulties.
If you get the right help at that time, you can overcome the difficulties and grow to the next level.
History is our best friend, helping us resolve the difficulties and challenges we face.
Because history is not just a study of past facts, but a study of meeting people.
When we meet people in history and ask them questions, we can gain clues to solving present-day problems.
So history is very important to children too.
Because history will help you navigate the long life ahead.
History changes the lives of children, and children, in turn, create the history of the future.
This book will serve as a compass for children to find their way through life as they meet people from history.
I hope that through this book, you will learn about the 'usefulness' of history in a more in-depth and enjoyable way than before.
From memorized history to a history of meeting people
Twelve Historical Journeys That Will Change Children's Lives
Children who are studying history for the first time often become frustrated when faced with numerous 'facts'.
There are many cases where people completely lose interest in history.
Because in our history that has lasted thousands of years, there seems to be so much to memorize.
Of course, it is important to accurately understand historical facts.
But the history that children really need is about 'people' rather than 'facts'.
Because only when you meet people in history and understand why you study history and what use it has for you can you truly become interested in history.
This book features twelve historical figures.
We look into history through their lives.
The author says that the stories of historical figures are interesting because they are "a study of meeting people and gossip."
Just as we find enjoyment in everyday conversations by listening to other people's stories, this book offers a never-before-seen joy as we encounter the life of a historical figure.
History is both interesting and meaningful.
Children have fun looking at the lives of historical figures in books and can naturally connect them to their own lives.
This book will help children break away from the memorization-focused history and discover the joy of history that can transform their lives.
One good choice can change your life!
Learning about history and humanities by observing the choices made by people in the past
Sometimes one choice changes your life.
Children often face important moments of choice.
If you don't know what choices are good or what kind of life you want to create through your choices, you may make the wrong choices.
History is children's best friend when faced with such important choices.
If you look at history, people's lives change and history changes depending on their choices.
It's like watching an exciting movie or drama.
So, as children study history, they can think about the consequences of the choices they make.
There are twelve characters in this book.
They are all people who have courage in their hearts and who actively choose and change their lives and the environment around them.
So their lives could become history.
Children who read this book will naturally understand the importance of choice as they delve into the lives of historical figures, and will be able to actively cultivate their own lives.
