Our child reads a lot of books,
Can we really understand non-fiction writing?

It's now a well-known fact that children who are good at reading also do well in school.
But can we truly say our children have good reading comprehension just because they're good at reading comics or novels? It's a mistake to assume that just because they're reading, they'll get good grades.


There is a separate reading method that will help you get good grades.
It depends on non-literature reading training.
Unlike literature such as novels or poetry, non-fiction makes it difficult to predict the content that will follow, and the amount of information that is presented unilaterally makes it difficult for children to easily become interested in the text.
Most children find it boring and difficult.


That's why many children complain of learning difficulties starting in the second or third grade of elementary school, when the amount of non-fiction texts in textbooks increases rapidly.
At a time when you should be interested in studying and want to learn more, you lose interest in studying and want to give up.
We run into the barrier of non-literature.


To address these concerns for parents and children, Yongseonsaeng, an elementary education brand chosen by 3 million readers, has stepped forward.
The Social Criticism History Research Institute, which has been working hard on children's history education by publishing 『Mr. Yong's Bustling Korean History』, 『Mr. Yong's Textbook Korean History』, and 『Mr. Yong's World History for Liberal Arts』, is now presenting 『Mr. Yong's 15-Minute Korean History Reading』, which strengthens non-literature reading training and completes the basics of Korean history.


"Mr. Yong's 15-Minute Korean History Reading (Revised Edition)" is a textbook that helps children develop reading comprehension and vocabulary, which are crucial for their learning ability, while also naturally acquiring knowledge related to Korean history.


■ A full cast of Korean history figures from textbooks! Social studies textbooks are a breeze to read!
In 『Mr. Yong's 15-Minute Korean History Reading (Revised Edition)』, you can encounter the stories of approximately 120 people who have been active in various fields of our history, including politics, economy, society, culture, and art.
It includes all the characters that appear in elementary school social studies textbooks, as well as historical figures that are relatively under-recognized but worth considering.
You will be able to read the 5th grade social studies textbook that you will be learning in the future without difficulty.


■ Stories about historical figures make non-fiction reading easier!
Reading the thoughts and lines of the ancient figures along with Mr. Yong's explanations allows you to understand the situation vividly, as if you were stepping into that era.
Children become more interested in and curious about Korean history because they feel familiar with historical figures and sometimes even like friends.
Because reading non-fiction feels familiar and fun, you can start training in reading non-fiction with fun.


■ History keywords are essential! New vocabulary learning corner!
In 『Mr. Yong's 15-Minute Korean History Reading (Revised Edition)』, historical terms and concepts that you need to know are included in each story.
We marked and underlined key words that frequently appear on tests to help children focus on them, and after reading the text, we designed it so that students could solve various types of problems to help them memorize the key words.
In the revised edition, a new vocabulary learning corner has been created.
In addition to core keywords, we have also included various types of questions to help you properly learn vocabulary, including terms that frequently appear in history books, such as coup d'état, royal authority, peace treaty, envoys, and astronomy, which are based on Chinese characters.


Listen to the character's story in audio format too!
『Mr. Yong's 15-Minute Korean History Reading』 provides audio material of the text.
You can use it freely for review before or after solving the problems.
You can hear the thoughts and lines of historical figures even more realistically through the voices of professional voice actors, as well as Mr. Yong's kind explanations.
