Epilogue

Raising two children as language prodigies through 10 years of book-based parenting
The unwavering roots and principles of book parenting success!

This book is a parenting and growth book that records the author's intense parenting experience over the past 10 years.
This book is also an experience book that contains true-to-fact records, such as, "If you talk a lot during pregnancy, your baby will speak quickly."
The author read to the child whenever and however long he wanted for 30 months, and the child read over 10,000 books.
As I read English books as if they were Korean, my child naturally became bilingual as he read Korean books to me in English.
Also, children who are cared for know how to be caring, so they have stable emotions to the point that they are called 'gentlemen'.
All of this is the power of book parenting.

This book meticulously describes all aspects of book parenting, including books, play, English, developmental processes, and the wounded inner child that hinders book parenting.
In this day and age where there is an abundance of parenting information, this book provides clear guidelines for making choices when you are confused about which direction to take while raising your child.

Applicable in any environment or situation
A book that anyone can practice, a book that serves as a compass for parenting.

Most people know that parenting through books is important, but that doesn't mean everyone practices it or succeeds in it.
The author meticulously recorded his experiences and the process of realization, explaining how to succeed in raising children through books, why he failed, and if he failed, where he went wrong.
Starting with why we should raise our children by reading (Why), we established in order how we should do it (How), and what we should do (What).
If we proceed by starting from the root of Why, moving to the trunk of How, and branching out to the branches of What, the process of book parenting will never waver, no matter who does it.
This book is different from other parenting books that focus on functions in that it deals with the essence of parenting through books.
Because it covers the roots and successful principles of book parenting, it can be applied to any environment or situation.
This book is like a compass for parenting books, encompassing not only Korean books but also English books, Korean alphabet writing, English phonics, play, brain development stages, and psychological development stages.


"Is this yours?"
The power of book parenting to make English flow naturally from a 5-year-old's mouth.

Mom's English doesn't require you to major in English or be fluent in English.
Rather, the more English experts you are, the more likely you are to fail because you try to point out and teach your child various things.
Only when a child experiences the English language, gets a taste for it, and changes it in various ways to feel that English is fun can the mother's English be successful.
The author points out that many mothers make a mistake at this point.
Because I know more English than my child, I feel like teaching him.
Even if a child makes a small mistake in English pronunciation, the right way to respond is not to point it out or correct it, but to simply respond with a series of exclamations.

The author's two children began speaking English solely through English picture books.
Just like the success story of Mom's English, the author also helped her child learn English by reading English picture books, and the child began reading English books on his own.
Just as reading Korean books as much as the child wanted helped the child learn Korean on his own and become independent readers, by starting with easy English picture books and becoming familiar with English, the child began to speak and learned phonics and began to read.

The author believes that mothers who are not fluent in English are stronger in their English skills.
The author said that when the child spoke English with his small lips, as if responding to that belief, he felt a heart-pounding emotion.
The author emphasizes:
Reality is what is created as you believe, and belief soon becomes reality.

Like water flowing from top to bottom
Education must also proceed in a natural order.

The author says:
Education should be done at home, the place most familiar to the child, by the mother, the person the child loves most, through reading books, which are a gentle stimulus.
The time when a child is most receptive is when he or she has had a good night's sleep and is in peak condition.
Children receive information best when they are awake and alert.
If you are a mother raising a young child, don't miss this opportunity to read a picture book to your child in a voice full of love.
Then education will flow naturally like water from above to below.

To raise a child who enjoys learning, the first step must be taken at home.
No matter how rapidly the world changes and robots replace human jobs, hope is everywhere.
No matter how hellish the college entrance exams are in Korea, if education begins at home and is solid, students can develop the strength to overcome anxiety regardless of the government's education policy.
If the method is right, the goal is not important.
It is self-evident that if the method is right, the direction will also flow correctly.
The author's earnest desire to convey that all education begins with a parent reading a book at home will inspire mothers across the country to commit to truly raising their children through books.
