Let's look at the cover. A girl with her hair tied into two ponytails is standing with her arms crossed. She looks straight ahead with her big, clear eyes and seems to have something to say.

■ Content
Animals are very strange to children. Ants are too small and hedgehogs have too many stinging spines. The same goes for snakes without legs and ostriches that leak and can't fly. The giraffe's neck is so long that it looks very uncomfortable. I think the child wanted to make fun of the animals a little. But everyone responds, “It’s okay!” regardless of the child’s teasing. Although ants are small, they are strong enough to lift objects more than 50 times their own weight, and thanks to their thorns, hedgehogs are not afraid even if a lion comes. Also, snakes can crawl anywhere without legs using the scales on their stomachs, and ostriches cannot fly but can run faster than zebras. Giraffes are tall so they can eat leaves from high places. So everyone was able to confidently say, “It’s okay!” But now the animals are questioning the child. “Then what about you?”
Ah, the embarrassed child falls into thought for a moment. What can a child do well? And he comes up with something that only he can do. The biggest laugh in the world! That healthy smile is a child's most special ability and pride.

“Everything is okay!” – The joy of discovering the mysterious adaptability and health of life
Which creature in the world has flawless abilities? Whether absolute or relative, there is bound to be something missing or something that seems strange. But is it really okay to use the words deficiency or abnormality? In the end, isn't it just a human standard?
The author of this book, Choi Sook-hee, suddenly came up with the idea for this work while looking at ants. She was thinking, 'It's really small,' but when she saw that it was holding much larger prey, she was like, 'It's really strong!' The vitality and new emotion shown by the ants was the beginning of the work.
Yes. All life in the world is so wonderful. This is because life itself is a healthy force. There is no problem because an ant is too small, a snake has no legs, or an ostrich cannot grow. All animals have their own special abilities and that is why they live ‘well’. This adaptability and health of life is truly beautiful and mysterious. The author talks about its great power and says that he wanted to develop children's sensitivity to life.
This book is a short cognitive picture book aimed at younger children. However, the natural and exquisite combination of the characteristic ecology of animals that children will find interesting, and a healthy and warm theme based on that ecological information, creates a great resonance.

“I’m fine too!” ? A confident child who looks at the world with healthy eyes
A child who made comments in front of animals. But actually, it's not that different from being a child. The child is small, weak, and clumsy-looking. In the end, the child answers the animals who ask, “What are you so good at?” “I have the biggest smile in the world.”
It is said that ‘laughter’ is a blessing given only to humans by God. It is one of the many characteristics that distinguish humans from animals. Above all, a child's laughter, that healthy smile, can be the most precious strength and expression of confidence for children taking their first steps into the world.
In this book, along with animals confidently saying 'It's okay!', children also discover one of their most special abilities: a bright smile. That big smile, along with the pleasant words, “It’s okay!” conveys warm comfort and great satisfaction to the child. The author said that he wanted to tell us through that cool smile that each of our children is the most precious being in the world. That comfort and satisfaction will once again build confidence in the child. So, as a precious life that occupies a part of the world, it can be the strength that helps a child discover the pride and possibility of living life confidently. Now that I think about it, the face of the child I saw on the cover seemed to have the composure and confidence to say to myself, ‘It’s okay.’
