Publisher's Review
Jewelry filled with cute style and beauty
The mind that values ​​and protects oneself


The skilled grandmother sews and embroiders to make jewelry.
By adding colorful threads, fabrics, and various decorations, we create beautiful accessories that go well with hanbok, such as norigae (traditional Korean hat), daenggi (a type of ribbon), and tteoljam (a type of ribbon).
Decorating oneself with ornaments is part of our traditional culture.
People in the past wore ornaments close to their bodies not only to look stylish and pretty, but also to ward off evil spirits and pray for good fortune and health.
The grandmother is portrayed as an adult who preserves the beauty and style of the jewelry and understands the feelings of the fox who has transformed into a child.
Grandmother and child learn more about each other as they make jewelry together.
You will come to realize that the heart that puts all its effort into making jewelry is no different from the heart that values ​​itself.
The paintings, painted in clear and simple colors, warmly embrace the feelings between the fox and the grandmother.


The Secret of the Fox's Favorite Jewelry Shop

Author Kim Mi-hye, who has written poetry and various children's books for a long time, took the fox's disguise from an old tale and created a story about a fox who loves accessories.
While in old tales, the fox was depicted as a deceitful and harmful creature, this book reimagines it as a child with a pure heart, possessing a love for something. A place where the scent of fragrant tea and old wood wafts, where doors open and close without a trace, where beautiful props reflecting Grandma's tastes and a grandfather clock with a fox painting on it are displayed, where one can freely admire exquisite trinkets.
At the end of the oak forest, the jewelry shop is a space with a mysterious atmosphere.
Artist Kim Hye-won, who drew the picture, brought the flavor of the story to life using watercolors and colored pencils.
Scenes featuring cute foxes, such as a fox skipping rope while waiting for the full moon, a fox imagining with a pillow in its head, or a fox looking at its own reflection in a pond on a moonlit night, will make you smile quietly.
The secret of the fox in the red vest and the jewelry store unfolds as softly as a purple night in the forest and as mysteriously as a yellow full moon.
