Slow Miracle: The Power of Reading 100 English Picture Books Slowly
 |
Description
Book Introduction
Your child's English will change with a 100-day English picture book journey! 『Reading 100 Books Slowly for the Nation』, Slow Miracle begins. The best and only way to solve your child's English problem is to enjoy English picture books! The "Read 100 Books Slowly" project has been launched to encourage more consistent reading of English books together! The leading authority in children's English education has returned with a practical guide to reading English books that will inspire and transform! The "Read 100 Books Slowly" project, which has brought laughter and tears to countless parents and children across the country and allowed them to experience true "miracles," has been published in a new book, "The Power of Reading 100 English Picture Books Slowly," which contains introductions to 100 English picture books that capture the essence of the project. Two years ago, Professor Ko Gwang-yoon, who taught English education to children as a teacher of English teachers, spread the importance of reading English books, and raised all four of his children as English prodigies, published his previous work, "The Power of Reading English Books," which contains all of his proven English learning methods. Through this book, countless people realized that reading English picture books (enjoyable, readable, well-read) is the best and only way for our children to become fluent in English, and “The Power of Reading English Books” immediately became a bestseller with the support of countless parents across the country. Although the author of "The Power of Reading English Books" suggests a fun and enjoyable way to study English with children, it is true that it is difficult to continue reading English books every day in daily life. Whenever a mother and child get lost, there needs to be someone who walks alongside them and gives them the right direction. There's a saying that if you want to go far, you must go together. The author of this book, Ko Gwang-yoon, launched the "Read 100 Books Slowly" project to share the knowledge and hope readers need while reading English picture books, and to gain greater strength together and go further together. The "Read 100 Books Slowly" project is a new way of studying English through solidarity, where people with the same goal come together to study. The author says that if you read a good English picture book slowly and enjoyably, one book a day for 100 days in total, you will experience a "slow miracle" where your English skills will improve significantly at some point. The author organized the "Read 100 Books Slowly" project to make reading more enjoyable and consistent, and has been talking about proper picture book reading and good English books. The "Read 100 Books Slowly" project continues this year as well. Every finisher testifies to the effectiveness of 'Read 100 Books Slowly'. In addition, it is said that reading beautiful picture books improves relationships with children and helps children develop higher sensibilities and character. Each day, the book of the day is selected and, with a balanced perspective, objective analysis, deep insight, and easy-to-understand explanations, it opens the reader's mind, stimulates the imagination, provides comfort and courage, and even boosts self-esteem. These gem-like introductions provide direction on how to read English picture books with children and provide the motivation to read English books easily, enjoyably, and consistently. There are already many books on the market about reading English picture books or original texts. However, I dare say that this book is the only one that truly demonstrates the essence of high-quality commentary on English picture books and contains introductions that truly make reading a pleasure. As you follow the guidance in this book and look at English picture books, you will soon find yourself losing the burden of the original text and enjoying wonderful works. Our child's improvement in English skills is a natural result. The author says that more parents should join the "Read 100 Books Slowly" movement to learn the joy of reading English books before their children do, and how it can create a slow miracle. So, we say that we must make our children 'lucky' children who are not discriminated against, at least in their English studies. |

Read 100 books slowly
001 《Don't Let the Pigeon Drive the Bus!》
We sincerely welcome everyone who participated in Slow Miracle's 100 Books Slow Reading Project.
Slow Miracle's 100 Books to Read Slowly series, which will continue with parts 2 and 3, will begin with "Don't Let the Pigeon Drive the Bus!" by Mo Willems, a genius author who knows the world of children very well.
[...] It's so fun that if you read it over and over again, your child might start using the sentences in the book in their daily lives.
Sometimes we say “Please~!” when we want a tasty snack or to do something we want, or we say “No fair!” when we don’t like something.
Even if that happens, please don't be too surprised.
If you consistently enjoy reading English books, everything will happen naturally.
And the English that starts like that is on a different level from the English that you studied with difficulty.
---pp.22~25

020 《Miss Rumphius》
There's a bit of text, but I hope you won't be scared or discouraged.
Reading an English book is not about interpreting or translating sentences.
Even if there are things you don't know, even if there are many unfamiliar things, it's important to somehow grasp the overall content and enjoy the story.
Is it possible? Of course.
[...] Just think of any words you don't know as blanks.
And try to figure out the overall meaning of the sentence by making the most of the clues given in the illustrations and text.
It's okay if you don't fully understand the meaning.
No, we should take that state of affairs for granted and be comfortable with the ambiguity.
To learn to read English properly, you need to feel like the unknown words and ambiguous parts are your friends.
---pp.118~119
Read 100 books slowly
026 《Not a Box》
Unfortunately, we often see cases around us where people approach reading English books in an overly academic way, ruining not only the reading itself but also the English language.
[...] Paradoxically, in some ways, the best way to teach English reading is not to teach it.
If there is no proper direction and method, it is better to do nothing and just leave it alone for now.
If you want to help your child learn English and read English books properly, you must first know the right method.
And above all, mom and dad must experience the fun and sense of accomplishment of reading English books themselves.
In this way, the true fun and passion of reading English books should be naturally passed on to the child, and the child should be able to experience the joy of reading English books on his own.
---p.148

043 《If You Give a Mouse a Cookie》
If you can't remember the words you studied so diligently, it's a waste of time and effort. But did you know that surprisingly, the most common vocabulary study method used by Korean students is "memorization"? This is despite the fact that there are many effective methods for studying English vocabulary.
In fact, the best way to remember anything, not just words, is through association.
So what's the most effective way to create associations? You might think of pictures, but the answer is story-based associations.
That's also using a story that goes on and on.
Of course, it would be even better if the impressive story and pictures were well combined.
This book is a prime example of a circular tale with such characteristics.
---p.221
Read 100 books slowly
066 《Leo the Late Bloomer》
This book is for slow children, children who are thought to be slow, children who always try to go fast, and the parents of such children.
Any parent raising a child will hit their knee and say, “Ah!”
A deep emotion comes over me and tears well up in my eyes.
You will find comfort and encouragement, and you will also gain greater confidence.
You can learn the aesthetics of slowness and leisure.
[...] I hope you find out.
It's not a problem at all to be slower and worse than others.
And in many cases, waiting is the best and only way.
I hope the children will realize this too.
It's good enough just the way it is now.
And that you can go slowly at your own pace.
---pp.329~330

081 《That Is Not a Good Idea!》
One little tip for successful English book reading.
This book is great for children to start reading on their own because it is a short English book with easy, simple sentences.
If your children ever ask you to read to them, don't forget.
That you should act as if you've never read the book, especially as if you don't know the ending.
As you read the book, picture yourself enjoying the anxious, worried, and confused expressions on your mom and dad's faces at each scene.
Imagine the children screaming with joy as they watch the twist in the ending that will delight their parents.
---p.407
Read 100 books slowly
097 《Click, Clack, Moo: Cows That Type》
A book is something that is sufficient if you read it for enjoyment.
You don't have to think about the English or the meaning of the work; just enjoy reading it.
In a world where imagination and creativity are more important than memorized knowledge, it's far more beneficial to enjoy reading books filled with interesting stories, linguistic play, ingenious ideas, wit, and humor than to study with dull lessons, messages, or the potential to ruin the fun of reading and even your English skills.
Above all, it makes us happy and joyful.
It gives you peace of mind.
We help you discover the joy of reading English books and get closer to enjoying them.
And as I read slowly and chat about books with other people, many thoughts, big and small, arise one after another.
The incredible power of reading together is something that is difficult to achieve alone.

How to Select and Use English Picture Books
The 100 English picture books included in this book are masterpieces carefully selected from among the best of the best.
Every time it was selected, it immediately became a bestseller in major online and offline bookstores, including Kyobo Book Centre and Aladdin, and continues to be widely read to this day.
The 100 picture books are arranged in groups of 25 books that match the mood of each season, and 5 books are released each week from Monday to Friday with the difficulty level gradually increasing.
By learning the correct way to read English books and enjoying reading them through the author's step-by-step introduction using the English picture books in this book as a textbook, you can kill two birds with one stone: "the fun and excitement of reading English books" and "improving your English skills."
First, read 'Today's Book' slowly and thoroughly. Even if you come across words you don't know, don't stop and read until the end.
If possible, try to understand the content using pictures, context, background knowledge, and imagination rather than looking it up in a dictionary.
Because the key to reading English books is not studying words and interpreting sentences.
While reading, mark any unfamiliar words or expressions you come across (to look them up later), and if you feel you haven't fully grasped the content, read it again.
If you find it difficult, you can read the introduction first.
Once you have a general understanding of the book's contents, read the introduction slowly.
Through the introduction, you can increase your understanding of the book, learn things you didn't know or haven't seen before, and expand your thoughts and perspectives.
Don't miss the "One-Line Comments" that follow each introduction.
All comments are real comments written in Slow Miracle Cafe, and each honest word expands the reading experience.
Read today's book again, paying attention to the parts you didn't know or didn't see the first time you read it.
Finally, share the joy of reading with others.
Then, of course, you have to dive back into the magic of reading.
◆ A word from readers ◆
◆ Wow! This is an introduction that makes you hug the book tightly.
The deep meaning contained in each expression slowly seeps into my heart.
“Ah, so that’s what happened!” you realize.
It is comforting, healing, and hopeful.
I feel happy.
Thank you again today.
(Park Yeon-ju 1604)
◆ As the professor said, if you focus on what you know, it will come to life more vividly through the pictures.
I read it like a whirlwind, skipping over words I didn't know.
I had an amazing experience overcoming the ambiguity of English through the power of story! (Shin Jin-sook1814)
◆ Wow! That's amazing.
I can't help but be amazed.
Why couldn't I see or read the parts you described? I was really blind.
I'm really touched.
Thanks to the professor's explanation, it resonates even more deeply.
I feel the power of 'slowly' that Slimi emphasizes.
(Chae Ji-yeon 2547)
◆ As always, I read today’s introduction with rapt attention.
It can be interpreted philosophically like this! All of the picture books are great, but I always look forward to the professor's introductions, and I like them even more than the books themselves.
I even write down the parts I want to remember.
It's far from studying, but I really like it.
(Ham Ju-hyeon 2680)
How can a writer see the world with such a unique perspective? How can a professor interpret a single book from such diverse perspectives? Having only read one picture book, I feel like I've read a noble philosophy book.
(Go Hee-sun 1063)
Let me first share with you the knowledge and hope you need.
Through "Read 100 Books Slowly," I hope to see the sprouts of slow miracles sprouting here and there and growing together with you.

How to Select and Use English Picture Books
The 100 English picture books included in this book are masterpieces carefully selected from among the best of the best.
Every time it was selected, it immediately became a bestseller in major online and offline bookstores, including Kyobo Book Centre and Aladdin, and continues to be widely read to this day.
The 100 picture books are arranged in groups of 25 books that match the mood of each season, and 5 books are released each week from Monday to Friday with the difficulty level gradually increasing.
By learning the correct way to read English books and enjoying reading them through the author's step-by-step introduction using the English picture books in this book as a textbook, you can kill two birds with one stone: "the fun and excitement of reading English books" and "improving your English skills."
First, read 'Today's Book' slowly and thoroughly. Even if you come across words you don't know, don't stop and read until the end.
If possible, try to understand the content using pictures, context, background knowledge, and imagination rather than looking it up in a dictionary.
Because the key to reading English books is not studying words and interpreting sentences.
While reading, mark any unfamiliar words or expressions you come across (to look them up later), and if you feel you haven't fully grasped the content, read it again.
If you find it difficult, you can read the introduction first.
Once you have a general understanding of the book's contents, read the introduction slowly.
Through the introduction, you can increase your understanding of the book, learn things you didn't know or haven't seen before, and expand your thoughts and perspectives.
Don't miss the "One-Line Comments" that follow each introduction.
All comments are real comments written in Slow Miracle Cafe, and each honest word expands the reading experience.
Read today's book again, paying attention to the parts you didn't know or didn't see the first time you read it.
Finally, share the joy of reading with others.
Then, of course, you have to dive back into the magic of reading.
◆ A word from readers ◆
◆ Wow! This is an introduction that makes you hug the book tightly.
The deep meaning contained in each expression slowly seeps into my heart.
“Ah, so that’s what happened!” you realize.
It is comforting, healing, and hopeful.
I feel happy.
Thank you again today.
(Park Yeon-ju 1604)
◆ As the professor said, if you focus on what you know, it will come to life more vividly through the pictures.
I read it like a whirlwind, skipping over words I didn't know.
I had an amazing experience overcoming the ambiguity of English through the power of story! (Shin Jin-sook1814)
◆ Wow! That's amazing.
I can't help but be amazed.
Why couldn't I see or read the parts you described? I was really blind.
I'm really touched.
Thanks to the professor's explanation, it resonates even more deeply.
I feel the power of 'slowly' that Slimi emphasizes.
(Chae Ji-yeon 2547)
◆ As always, I read today’s introduction with rapt attention.
It can be interpreted philosophically like this! All of the picture books are great, but I always look forward to the professor's introductions, and I like them even more than the books themselves.
I even write down the parts I want to remember.
It's far from studying, but I really like it.
(Ham Ju-hyeon 2680)
How can a writer see the world with such a unique perspective? How can a professor interpret a single book from such diverse perspectives? Having only read one picture book, I feel like I've read a noble philosophy book.
(Go Hee-sun 1063)
