A unique consonant recognition book with eye-catching animal shapes: ㄱㄴㄷ
There are a variety of books published that cover consonants.
There are many that are composed of picture books as well as full-fledged Korean language learning materials.
Learning consonants is the foundation of literacy education, and learning words using consonants and their sound values ​​is a fun language experience even for babies who are just learning to speak.
If you look at the books currently published, many of them are mainly composed around the phonetic values ​​of consonants.
G is for train, N is for tree, and so on.
There are also stories that are told by making simple sentences with those words.
However, this time, the book “Animal Friends GND” introduced by Woongjin Junior has a new fun added to it, making it an even more enjoyable GND book.
It helps children recognize not only the sound values ​​of consonants but also the shapes of consonants through interesting animal pictures.
First, learn the phonetic value of the animal that contains the corresponding consonant.
But if you look at the picture of the animal, the shape of the animal is exactly the same as the consonant.
In the scene introducing the letter ㄱ, a giraffe appears, and the giraffe is shaped like the consonant ㄱ.
The consonants and animals that appear side by side on both pages focus attention due to their similarity in shape, and thus provide great visual interest and satisfaction.
You can learn the sounds and shapes of consonants right away with animal pictures that are easy on the eyes.
It also includes a brief story that connects each page.
This book is about a bee's journey in search of honey.
The animal friends you meet on your way to find honey introduce the sounds and shapes of each consonant.
After waiting and working hard, the bee meets 14 consonants and 14 animals and asks where the honey is, and finally gets some delicious honey.
The concise two-beat structure keeps young children, who may have difficulty keeping up with long breaths, engaged, and the satisfying ending of finding the sweet tooth also provides a sense of satisfaction and joy through the story.
High-quality illustrations also add to the enjoyment of reading the book.
The illustrations in this book are oil paintings that were painstakingly created, and while they are detailed, almost like photographs, they also possess the softness and warmth that only paintings, not photographs, can provide.
The delicate, lifelike facial expressions of the animals make children enjoy making eye contact with the animals in the book.

The joy of meeting animals in nature.
A book that can even be used as a basic ecology book
When asked where the delicious honey is, the giraffe eats a leaf and says that it is the most delicious, while the sloth simply says, "I'm so sleepy, I'm going to sleep."
By looking at the behavior and speech of each animal appearing in the book, you can learn basic ecological information about the animals.
You can talk with your child about things like what giraffes eat, what the characteristics of sloths are, and where bats and penguins live.
The author of this book always hoped that children would become closer to nature.
So, while planning this book, he said he wondered if he could include nature in it.
Children have a special interest and affection for animals.
So, it is a book that any child will enjoy.
