Publisher's Review
Special Feature 2.
Picture books are our home's art gallery
Want to meet the picture book of life?
Into the world of beautiful paintings!

A scene in a picture book stops the reader's heart.

We introduce 13 beautiful 'picture book illustrations' that stir our emotions like famous paintings in an art museum.
At our house picture book art gallery, let's appreciate the illustrations in picture books as art before the story.
Let's look at the painting slowly and feel the beauty of its colors, shapes, expressive techniques, subjects, and materials.

Let's imagine the story of a picture book hidden in each scene.
Another way to enjoy the 'Picture Book Museum' is to open a picture book and compare the parts where your imagination meets the author's story.

Special Feature 3.
Picture books instead of Kadehen!
The perfect way to enjoy the National Museum of Korea

The National Museum of Korea is considered one of the most 'hip' places in South Korea these days.
It has become a place to see, feel, and enjoy artifacts, where you can purchase museum passes with open-run admission, have idol stars visit and take photos to commemorate your visit, and experience the Buddha and space in the 'Room of Thought'.
But when you actually get asked, “What do you like best about Kookjung Park?” your mind will instantly go blank, unlike the memories of running around diligently.
With over 10,000 artifacts on display across a 40,000-square-meter expanse, it's impossible to fully experience the National Museum of Korea in one sitting. But to make your visit even more memorable, here are some tips for viewing the museum, along with the editor's illustrated guide! While a visit itself is worthwhile, discovering the hidden treasures and secret stories within will make it even more enjoyable.
We also introduce a picture book that you can take with you to the National Museum of Korea with your children to take 100 photos, as well as museum exploration tips.
If you are moved and amazed by beautiful things, you will naturally come to like history.

Besides this, here are all the ways to make reading picture books more fun!

Author Eunyoung Jo introduces 100 expressive techniques from the 2011 BIB Grand Prix winner, "Run, Toto," the power to change readers' emotions, a story about the physical properties of picture books regarding formats, a music picture book where you can enjoy beautiful lyrics and illustrations together, picture book humanities, picture book literacy, and even questions about picture books.
Everything about picture books is included.

Let's open the door to 《Lakivium J No. 11: Picture Books Are Pictures》 now!
