Come on, majestic Mayo! Catch the Woolly Bully!
Description
Book Introduction
So what if your face turns a little red, it's carrot country!
The history of timid child protagonists in children's literature is so long that a genealogy of "blushing children" could be created.
Mayo, the main character of "Majestic Mayo, Catch the Woolly Bully!", is a nine-year-old boy who is troubled by his constantly reddening face and his voice getting smaller.
Mayo, who is intimidated by the powerful Joo-ho and keeps her words to herself, is met by none other than Carrot! Prince Dangdang, who was cursed by the villain Ulibulli and turned into a doll, asks Mayo to help him, saying that she has courage.
Was it any coincidence that Mayo, a loner eager to fulfill a friend's request for the first time in her life, ended up in "Carrot Land"? In this place where everyone wears red faces and treasures red berries, Mayo discovers the courage hidden beneath her blushing face and confronts Ulibulli.
“Don’t bother Dangdang.
“You are my friend!”
Mayo's face turned bright red as she screamed.
It's not because I'm shy or embarrassed.
I was moved by the thought of protecting Dangdang.
Just then, I remembered something my dad had said one day.
“Mayo, it’s not embarrassing to blush.
“That’s because great courage is welling up inside me!”
Suddenly, strength surged through my whole body.

Mayo stands tall as the hero of the carrot tribe.
Was the courage Mayo pulled out a disposable vessel, something only found in a fantasy world, or was it true courage, capable of standing tall in front of anyone, anywhere? Let's dive into the book and find out!

Into the book
“I like you.
I feel so at ease when I'm with you.
My face doesn't even turn red... ... .
“Shall we be friends?”
Mayo, who had been telling her true feelings to the carrot doll, soon fell asleep.
--- p.17
That night, something amazing happened in Mayo's room.
“Mayo, it’s me! Dangdang.
“The carrot doll you gave me a bath!”
“Eww!”
Mayo's mouth fell open.
A carrot doll can talk! I couldn't believe it.
“I am actually the prince of Carrot Country.”
“That’s ridiculous!”
--- p.18
Mayo's voice is getting smaller and smaller.
I was suddenly scared when I tried to tell him what was really on my mind.
And what's more, your face is turning red.
But this is carrot country.
I thought there was no need to be embarrassed since everyone had red faces.
Mayo mustered up her courage and spoke in a slow but clear voice.
“I won’t do it, I’m your subordinate.”
“If you become my subordinate, you can do whatever you want?”
“No, I won’t do that.”
--- pp.43~44
“Allaah, Allahu yi, may Allahu Chakan Ma’mei be strong,
“Alakadang Alafudang Chakan Maumai power!”
Then, with a bang, the owl disappeared.
Where the ullibulli had been, only a crumpled green crown of stems remained.
A colorful aurora rose above the carrot roof.
The carrot tribe jumped up and down in joy.
“You are the hero of our carrot country, Mayo!”
Dangdang held Mayo's hand tightly and said.
I feel so at ease when I'm with you.
My face doesn't even turn red... ... .

■ Children's 'Weak Hero': Why Mayo is Special
“If a person who truly loves you were to wash you clean, you would be freed from the spell.
But that's impossible.
There's no way humans would cherish something like a carrot doll that much.
Hahahaha!”
The loudly laughing Ulibulli waved his cane and disappeared.
So the proud prince was abandoned in the Mayonnaise apartment garden.
_ From the text
The curse of Ulibulli, which turned Dangdang into a carrot doll, carries the classic fairy tale clue that only 'true love' can save her.
Mayo, a warm-hearted girl, breaks the powerful curse of Woolly Bully by truly caring for and loving the insignificant carrot doll.
This is why Dangdang, who has regained his true form as the prince of Carrot Country, asks Mayo for help without hesitation.
The gaze that does not overlook the little things and the heart that tries to cherish them are all shining strengths like Mayo's name, 'Shining Yo'!
Although he doesn't have the image of a powerful and flashy hero that we usually think of, Mayo's activities shine brightly in the Carrot Country.
Comforting his discouraged friend Dangdang, persuading the party leader, and even finding out Ulibulli's weakness with his unyielding tenacity.
As the story unfolds following Mayo's activities, young readers may discover a little hero within themselves.
■ A unique fantasy drawn by author Im Hwa-seon, winner of the first Gilbut Children's Dandelion Literature Award
Since her debut through the Gangwon Ilbo New Year's Literary Contest, author Lim Hwa-seon has met readers with a wide range of works, including the fairy tales 『The Secret of Parentheses』, 『The Wish Bracelet Incident』, and 『Tofu Becomes a Flower』, the picture book 『Story Bread』, and the young adult novel 『The Boy Dances』. She has returned with a unique fantasy fairy tale for younger children, 『Majestic Mayo, Catch the Woolly Bully!』.
The author presents unique characters such as the timid but lovable child 'Mayo', the carrot prince 'Dangdang' who has never been seen anywhere in the world, and the mustachioed villain 'Ullibuly' who hides a secret.
Just as the author's wish to give Mayo a delightful adventure in a world of imagination became a reality, I hope that each young reader will unfold a new Carrot Country story in their own imagination.
[Author's Note]
"Carrots move and talk like people? There's a country where carrots like that live? Oh, that's ridiculous!"
If you have friends like this, tonight, try talking to something you cherish.
Maybe an amazing adventure like what happened to Mayo will begin!
