Who is the most beloved poet of Koreans? Kim So-wol, Seo Jeong-ju, Kim Chun-su… Among the many poets who have left behind exquisite verses, few have so deeply resonated with Korean sentiment as Yun Dong-ju.
In addition to his representative works, such as [Preface], [Star Counting Night], and [Self-Portrait], Yun Dong-ju left behind several other poems.
『Writing Yun Dong-ju (for Elementary School Students) - Sky, Wind, Stars, and Poetry』 includes 32 of his poems that are easy for elementary school students to copy, including [Winter], [Seashell], [Sandals], and [Sunlight? Wind], as well as his representative works that even elementary school students can easily understand, such as [Preface], [Star Counting Night], [New Road], and [Self-Portrait].

This book includes four types of stickers as an appendix.
[Emotion Stickers] are for an activity where you choose the emotions you feel after transcribing a poem and stick them on the book.
Then, there is a separate section where you can write down your feelings, such as, ‘I felt sad when I wrote this poem’, ‘I also felt a little sad when I thought of the past’…
A child who can express his or her feelings well will become a friend who understands and empathizes with others, right? [Stamp Stickers] are stamp-shaped stickers that allow children to express how they feel when they see a poem they've copied.
If you've done a great job transcribing the poem, you might enjoy receiving a "Congratulations" sticker. If your handwriting is a bit crooked, you might enjoy receiving a "Good luck" sticker. The other two types of stickers feature old-fashioned foods and objects.
It contains a lot of cool, old-fashioned, yet nostalgic items from when we were kids.
Wouldn't it be fun to reminisce about old memories and tell stories about the objects in the stickers with your child?
