Description
Book Introduction
The children's edition of the best-selling "Fool Victor," which moved 500,000 readers.
10th Anniversary Special Edition
The children's version of "Fool Victor," written by Joaquim de Posada, a world-renowned public speaker and motivational speaker and author of "The Marshmallow Story," which moved 3 million readers in Korea, has already celebrated its 10th anniversary with the love and support of countless readers.
Over the past 10 years, readers have consistently recommended this book as “the best book to motivate children” and “a book you want to read with your children,” and thanks to this, a special 10th anniversary edition of “Fool Victor for Children” has been created.
This book is a self-development fairy tale that reinterprets the story of a real-life person, Viktor Seribryakov, the president of Mensa, who was actually a genius but thought of himself as an idiot and lived as such for 17 years, into a fun and relatable episode that children can relate to.
If Joaquim de Posada's previous work, "Marshmallow Stories for Children," taught us how to dream and put it into practice in reality, this book teaches us the attitude toward life that requires us to believe in our own potential and learn to love ourselves first.
It reminds us of the importance of 'self-belief' that we can do anything as long as we don't give up in life, and also conveys a heartwarming lesson that we should never lose positive hope and courage in any situation.

Into the book
“Test results show that your son has a lower ability to understand facts than other children his age.
Also, since his speaking ability is also very behind, I suspect he may have a language disorder.
and……."
The counselor who had been speaking looked at Victor.
My father was staring down at the inspection documents with a dark expression.
“Victor.”
Dad took a deep breath as if he had made up his mind, then knelt down on one knee to be eye level with Victor and spoke.
“There is no need to listen to what a woman like that says.
No matter what anyone says, you are the smartest kid in the world.
You can do anything if you put your mind to it.
yes?"
Dad didn't get angry or scold me.
Victor didn't understand what his father was saying, but he nodded at his father's stern expression.
“Victor, it’s okay.
You did nothing wrong.
So don't worry about anything.”
Dad said with a bright smile.
Only then did Victor feel much more at ease.

“Mom, everyone calls me, calls me a fool.
And no, I'm kidding.
“Put something like a balloon with ink on it on the chair… … .”
“Oh, so that’s why your pants are a mess?”
Victor nodded, running his hand over the ink stain on his pants.
Mr. Stewart bent down and looked into Victor's eyes.
“Victor, look into my eyes.
And listen to me carefully.
“You are absolutely not stupid.”
Mr. Stewart picked up a branch and threw it far away.
“Anyone can throw or break a branch.
But you are the only one who can make such wonderful shapes out of branches.
Anyone who can do this is definitely not stupid.
Got it?”
Victor nodded.
Mr. Stewart smiled at Victor like that.

“Teacher, what is the monkey’s IQ?”
Duff suddenly asked a question.
“It is known that monkeys have around 50, and chimpanzees have around 65.”
“Then what about dolphins?”
Duff's question caused the classroom to erupt in laughter.
Children were making dolphin cries, “Kkuuk, kkuuk” here and there.
“Hahaha, I guess we’ll have the lowest IQ in our school today.”
“Don’t worry, Dolphin.
“The Animal Welfare Association will protect you.”
All the children's eyes were focused on Victor.
Victor was so nervous that his fingers moved involuntarily, tapping on the desk as if he were typing.
“Victor, can you stop banging on the desk?”
At Mr. Ronald's scolding, Victor clenched his hands tightly to keep his fingers from shaking.
--- p.99~100
“Victor, you have grown into a fine young man.
“You don’t know how much I missed you.”
As soon as Ms. Rachel saw Victor, she hugged him tightly and said.
Laura told her teacher the story of how Victor came to work at Afri.
“Victor, you are truly amazing.”
Teacher Rachel held Victor's hands tightly, tears welling in her eyes.
“Well, but I, I’m not qualified.
“I didn’t even graduate from middle school… … .”
“There is no one in this world who is perfectly prepared.
They say you can't know something until you try it.
So don't be afraid and just go for it.
Laura, Victor, you guys can do it.
“Trust yourself.”
Teacher Rachel smiled brightly at Laura and Victor.

“No matter how talented a person is, if he or she does not believe in his or her own abilities, he or she will not be able to use his or her talents.
If you think you can only be a horseshoe, you can only be a horseshoe, and if you think you are a fool, you really are a fool.
We have abilities that cannot be measured in numbers.
Never prejudge your own abilities without trying.
Believe in yourself.
Think of yourself as a great being.
Then your actions will also change greatly.
When your work feels difficult or you feel like quitting, remember the life of Victor Rogers, who lived as a fool for 17 years.”

Publisher's Review
Before 'Woo Young-woo', the genius who was teased as an idiot when he was young, there was 'Victor'!
“How can today’s fool become tomorrow’s genius?”
An amazing story that will help you develop limitless potential and confidence in yourself.
The main character of the recently popular drama [The Strange Lawyer Woo Young-woo], Woo Young-woo, was a huge issue and a subject of interest among children.
But long before the appearance of Woo Young-woo, a genius lawyer with autism spectrum who loves dolphins, there was another genius who was teased as a child for being stupid and even nicknamed "Dolphin."
This is Victor Rogers, the main character of 'Idiot Victor', which has been loved by 500,000 readers over the past 10 years.
As a child, Victor was diagnosed with cognitive impairment due to his stutter and slow movements.
Victor's side said, "No matter what anyone says, you are a smart kid.
Victor has a father who encourages him by saying, “You can do anything if you put your mind to it,” but reality is tough for him, who is teased by his friends at school every day as an “idiot.”
One thing that was fortunate was that, unlike those around him who treated Victor as a child with shortcomings, there was a teacher who discovered Victor's extraordinary talent.
Mr. Stewart encourages Victor by awarding him the Best Engineer Award for discovering a flaw in a car model during a science making competition.
But the joy is short-lived, as the results of the IQ test he received at school are revealed, and Victor is branded a complete idiot and a retarded child, becoming the butt of even more ridicule… … .
Meanwhile, Laura, a classmate of Victor's who has the nickname 'ugly one', is watching him being bullied by other kids and becomes angry without realizing it.
Laura is unable to approach Victor in a friendly manner, even though she knows that she sees herself in Victor's insecure and timid appearance.
The two have a chance to become close for a while, but are separated when Victor suddenly leaves school.
After a long time, Victor and Laura meet again.
Victor, who was still doing odd jobs but living a strong life, gets a chance to live a completely different life by solving an unexpected problem by chance, and around that time, Laura also learns a big secret that she never expected...
What awaits Victor and Laura as adults? Can today's fools become tomorrow's geniuses?
“We all have shining wings.
Believe in the power hidden within you and spread your wings!”
A message of inspiration and hope from the author of the best-selling book "The Marshmallow Story."
This book is a very special gift-like story from the author of the international bestseller, The Marshmallow Story.
It is a moving essay that helps children realize their limitless possibilities and potential, and it is also a self-development book for elementary school students that instills dreams and courage so that they can become confident and change themselves.
The recurring problem of bullying in schools has long since become something that anyone can experience, not just a social issue seen on the news.
If you've ever been teased for being a little different from others, or if you've ever teased someone, you need to realize and learn that being "different" is never wrong or strange.
This book uses realistic and exciting school life stories, such as school violence and bullying, to naturally encourage children to think about how to overcome real-life conflicts and concerns.
It also provides an opportunity for parents to realize how much influence a single word from an adult can have on a growing child.
This book conveys the message that everyone has hidden talents and values, and that if we discover them, even if it takes a little while, we can achieve great things someday. It will be a true guidebook for parents and teachers to reflect on their own roles, and an excellent motivational guide for children to nurture their latent confidence.
Let's discover the strengths and preciousness that only we possess through Victor and Laura, who may seem a little strange and eccentric because they are different from others, but shine even more specially because of it. They overcome today's pain and move forward steadfastly toward tomorrow's hope.
