Description Author Kim Young-jin, known for capturing the everyday moments of family life in vivid, realistic illustrations, returns with a new picture book. In his previous works, "Does Mom Think of Me at Work?" and "Does Dad Think of Me at Work?", he showed how, even when parents and children are apart during the day at work or kindergarten, their hearts remain connected. This time, Dad goes for a weekend walk with his child and gently, honestly shares feelings he hasn't been able to express before. Shall we follow along on this cozy, just-the-two-of-them walk between father and son? Dad's clumsy but true words to his child: I'm sorry, thank you, and I love you! On a weekend morning, Dad asks Geurin to go for a walk. Geurin isn't too thrilled, but agrees to tag along after Dad offers "three piggyback ride chances." As Geurin sits on a park bench sipping a drink, Dad remembers scolding him recently and honestly says, "I'm sorry." Only then does Geurin reveal how hurt he had felt. As they walk a loop around the park together, Geurin seems to sense his father's clumsy but sincere feelings. The child Dad thought was still just a little kid wraps his small arms around him. Dad's heart swells just seeing his child so healthy and strong beside him, proud and touched by how much he's grown. Holding Geurin close, Dad shares his heart: "I'm sorry, and thank you, and I love you." Dad the Magician, Who Makes the Everyday Special With one honest word from Dad, Geurin's heart opens wide to him. The hill he climbs piggybacking on Dad's broad back truly becomes an elephant's back, and the loofah gourd he touches in Dad's arms becomes a baby elephant's snack. The cattail seed head he swings while riding on Dad's shoulders becomes a magnificent sword. But even a dad like this always loses to Geurin in a footrace. With Dad by his side, even an ordinary walk transforms into something magical for a child. At the top of the hill, having reached it before Dad, Geurin waves with a face full of joy. Dad, running toward him, surely knows: time spent wholly with a child becomes their happiest and most precious memory, one that will someday give them great strength. Because Dad's magic is very, very powerful. Words and Pictures That Capture the Warmth of Family The cover, showing Geurin riding on Dad's shoulders with the same bright smile as his father, feels wonderfully happy and warm. The conversations between Dad and Geurin—sharing secrets, speaking honestly—feel as vivid and real as an actual dialogue. In the way Dad hugs Geurin, the way Geurin hugs Dad back, the way they run together, and their expressions while eating hamburgers, the closeness between father and child comes through completely. Perhaps because he had such a good time with Dad, Geurin comes home from the walk full of energy. Even though he pinky-promised to keep it a secret from Mom, he ends up shouting, "Mom! I ate a hamburger! Dad bought it for me!" How about spending some one-on-one time with your child this weekend, just like Geurin and his dad?
