Description

There are many things that seem fun, but continuing them is really hard! They say starting is half the battle, right? But when it comes to scrubbing gloves, it doesn't seem that way. Jump rope, piano, violin, swimming, art, Go... there are so many things I've started but quit after just a few days. As a child dreaming of being a comedian, I have many interests, but sticking with them until the end? Well... Today, I decided to quit taekwondo, which I just started a few days ago, because I got too absorbed in gaming. Mom wouldn't just let that slide. The scrubbing glove, frustrated by a nagging mom, tries to escape like an eel but ends up getting caught by Dad. But Dad says I don't have to do things I don't want to do anymore! As long as I finish scrubbing the statue of my great-great-grandfather in the backyard (this statue was made by my great-great-grandfather, grandfather, and dad through scrubbing practice, but the feet part is still unfinished). "From now on, I just want to play games every day! Should I just skip school altogether?" The scrubbing glove, filled with dreams, starts scrubbing, but as expected, it doesn't take long before it gets tired and falls over. "Is this the end of gaming forever...?" Just when the scrubbing glove is about to cry, its best friend, the baseball glove, comes to visit. It wants to show off a home run ball caught at the baseball field. After the game, it even got the signature of the player who hit the home run. The mischievous scrubbing glove can't miss this opportunity. It tests the baseball glove's catching skills by throwing the home run ball, but it accidentally lands in the pond in the backyard. After the baseball glove storms off in anger, the scrubbing glove looks down at the pond with mixed feelings. Suddenly, smoke rises from the pond, and a spirit appears with a bang! The spirit, resembling my great-great-grandfather, seems to want to help the scrubbing glove. Listening to the words of children, who are all different and special, the picture book series is written and illustrated by author Yoo Seol-hwa, who has been loved by both children and adults through her picture books and . This series originated from a request from a child the author met during a lecture. When the child asked, "Please make my story into a picture book!" the author felt a desire to capture the lovely appearances of the children she had met in a picture book. All the children in this series are depicted as gloves. There are mischievous twin gloves, timid vinyl gloves, aloof lace gloves, sturdy rubber gloves, active baseball gloves, earnest boxing gloves, carefree scrubbing gloves, gluttonous kitchen gloves, detective leather gloves, and thoughtful work gloves... Each glove represents a child with different personalities and talents, showcasing their unique traits through their various uses. Except for the newly transferred toe socks, of course. The protagonist of this story is a cheerful scrubbing glove dreaming of being a comedian. Despite always showing a positive and optimistic demeanor, the scrubbing glove has its weaknesses. Like most children, it lacks perseverance and patience, and its whims are constantly bubbling up. In fact, it's natural for children's interests to shift around. They are still exploring what they like and what they are good at. This exploration will likely continue for quite some time. The author Yoo Seol-hwa, who hears the children's 'thank you for listening to my story' everywhere they go, understands the 'whims' of children. This story was created from the heart of someone who wants to gently hint to children about the joy and fun that can only be discovered by seeing things through to the end. However, the author has not forgotten the original mission of bringing joy to children. While the previous work added an element of time travel to bring change to a series that could easily become boring, this time, elements of old tales have been added for fun. The author's long-standing skill of twisting old stories has been present since the first book, . With all my heart, I hope this picture book, which listens to children's words, reads their hearts, and weaves them into entertaining stories, reaches the hearts of even more children.
