Go to the Snow Flower Festival!
I'm curious about the title of the book
Tell me who won the sledding competition
Tell me where the treasure is hidden
Superstar Polar Bear Spino

Yeoul's words

A snowman can't be left out of a snow festival!
Experience the exciting festival with Pungpung and Spino

At the top of the always snow-covered Patbingsu Mountain, live the snowman Pungpung and the polar bear Spino.
They create magic glasses for their guests that allow them to see anything.
Pungpung and Spino, who have been active at Patbingsu-san's glasses shop, finally go out into the wider world.
Arriving at the snow festival they had longed to go to, the two are captivated by the sky-flying sled ride and the tree shaved ice sold only at the snow cafe.
But the fun is short-lived, as Pungpung and Spino face the troubles of the new friends they meet at the festival.
From the glasses you made to find the titles of books you read as a child to the crucial glasses that determine the winner of the sledding competition finals.
Pungpung's magic glasses are used in a variety of ways beyond the patbingsu mountain.

“Let me find the treasure note!”
Children who learn the importance of the process rather than the correct answer

Pungpung's magic glasses go beyond simply satisfying curiosity and ask profound questions about the right way to win.
Yeoul, whom she met at the festival, finds the title of a book she had forgotten with Pungpung's help.
The book is a picture book called "Enoki Mushroom Friend," written and illustrated by my aunt herself to help me sleep.
Yeoul regains her precious memories and becomes friends with Pungpung and Spino.
In the sledding competition that followed, Yuna and the boy crossed the finish line almost at the same time, creating a close call that made it difficult to determine the winner.
Pungpung's magic glasses play a crucial role in helping the referee make fair decisions.
Although her friend Yuna comes in second place, Pungpung and her friends comfort and cheer her on.
Yuna also decides to cheer up and try again next year.
In particular, the appearance of Haneul, who asks to see the location of the treasure hunt note with glasses in order to win the first prize, is noteworthy.
Haneul, who really wants to go on an overseas trip, plans to use her magic glasses to win the first prize, an airline ticket, and ask her mother to go with her.
After much thought, Pungpung makes glasses for her, but the lenses become cloudy and only allow her to see her location vaguely.
Eventually, another child finds the treasure, and Haneul realizes the importance of effort and process, saying, “Even if I found the note, I wouldn’t have been as happy as that child.”
In this way, it expands beyond the perspective of a child simply seeking the right answer, creating a point where caregivers and children reading together can think together about the value of fairness.


New friendships made at the festival
Pungpung and Spino, who have grown a little taller

The Snow Festival, which serves as the backdrop for Volume 4, becomes a new space of growth for Pungpung and Spino.
Pungpung and Spino meet new friends like Yeoul, Yuna, and Haneul in an unfamiliar place, experience various incidents, and show off a variety of charms that were not seen at Patbingsu Mountain.
The vibrant snow festival adds visual richness to the previous series.
Spino transforms the once scary-looking polar bear ice sculpture at the festival entrance into a cute, smiling one.
The sculpture is a huge hit with festivalgoers, and Spino has the unique experience of receiving compliments and even his first-ever autograph request.
The sight of Pungpung and Spino enjoying the festival to their heart's content, solving their friends' problems together, and sometimes even experiencing conflicts while understanding each other brings warm empathy and support to young readers.
As Pungpung's last words were, "Let's definitely come together next year too," we look forward to seeing their shining friendship in the next story.
