Description ■ Introducing the Fine Illustrated Bori Children's Encyclopedia Paperback Edition Set (17 Volumes) The Fine Illustrated Bori Children's Encyclopedia is Korea's very first hand-illustrated encyclopedia for children. For the past twenty-eight years, Bori has been creating children's encyclopedias to fully capture the beauty of the living creatures found across our land. To thank readers for their tremendous love and support, Bori has now created a paperback edition — lighter in both price and weight, yet identical in content to the original hardcover Bori Children's Encyclopedia. ■ Detailed Illustrations of Nature and Living Creatures, Researched Season by Season Each detailed illustration condenses the information found in dozens of photographs into a single image, allowing readers to see everything from a creature's appearance to its full life cycle at a glance. Artists carefully observed each living creature throughout all four seasons to accurately depict its form and unique characteristics. Backed by extensive field research, these books also offer rich, carefully compiled ecological information — bringing the natural, complete form of each creature to life alongside the most up-to-date ecological knowledge. ■ Covers Plants and Animals Featured in Elementary School Textbooks, All Grades and Subjects This set includes not only the plants and animals that appear across all elementary school textbooks and subjects, but also many familiar creatures children commonly encounter in daily life. Rather than relying on complex scientific classification systems, entries are organized by habitat and arranged in alphabetical order, making it easy for children to look things up on their own.

Children can enjoyably learn where various plants and animals live, what they look like, and how they benefit our daily lives. As they learn about nature, they'll also naturally pick up good writing habits along the way. ■ An Encyclopedia That Builds Both Understanding of Nature and Warm Emotional Growth By observing plants and animals living in harmony with nature, children develop genuine interest in and affection for living things. This encyclopedia also helps children understand nature and living creatures while nurturing healthy emotional growth. The Fine Illustrated Bori Encyclopedia is a book the whole family can enjoy together — one that children will continue to treasure even into adulthood. ■ Special Supplement: 'Bori Children's Encyclopedia Activity Guide for Teachers and Parents' The 'Bori Children's Encyclopedia Activity Guide' is a special supplement given exclusively to those who purchase the full 17-volume paperback set.
