{"product_id":"엄마는-회사에서-내-생각-해-김영진-그림책-2","title":"Does Mom Think of Me at Work? - Kim Young-jin Picture Book 2","description":"Description\n\nA picture book written and illustrated by Kim Young-jin, the beloved artist who showed the power of everyday-life picture books through the 'Jiwon and Byungkwan' series and won the hearts of young readers with realistic everyday settings and warm, familiar family characters. With this new work, the author hopes that every mom and child in the world can express and share their love for each other in everyday moments, capturing a day in the life of a mother and child in this picture book.\n\nWhat does Mom do when we're apart? It's Monday morning. Mom is busy getting ready for work and getting Eunbi ready for kindergarten, all at once. But Eunbi keeps dawdling because she doesn't want to be apart from Mom. Mom knows exactly how Eunbi feels, but there's not much she can do about it. She manages to soothe Eunbi and they head out the door. After hurrying to kindergarten, Mom leaves Eunbi behind and rushes off to work. Apart from each other, how will the two of them spend today?\n\nMom and me — our bodies may be apart, but our hearts are always together! This book compares, side by side, a day in the life of Mom at work and Eunbi at kindergarten, so children can easily understand what Mom's day is like from their own perspective. When you open the book, the left page shows Mom's story at work, while the right page shows Eunbi's story at kindergarten. What exactly Mom and Eunbi do throughout the day isn't the main point of this book — what matters is that even when they're apart, they remain connected in heart. So this book focuses on the emotional flow between the two of them. In every scene, Eunbi and Mom meet each other's eyes as if they were in the same place, even when they're physically apart. This expresses the belief that even though their bodies are separated, their hearts remain constantly connected as one. That belief is fully conveyed to the children who read this book.\n\nComfort and encouragement for moms and children doing their best in their own places\n\nMany mothers, busy with housework and their jobs, aren't able to spend enough time with their children. Many mothers feel anxious or guilty after dropping their children off at daycare or kindergarten. And what about the children? They don't want to be apart from Mom, or they constantly want to confirm Mom's love even after just a short separation. This picture book helps both mothers and children understand each other's feelings. As mother and child read this book together, the mother can fully express to her child how she always thinks of them, and the child can realize — through the story Mom reads aloud — that even when Mom can't be with them, she always worries about and loves them, bringing deep reassurance to their heart.\n\n'What is Mom doing right now? Is she thinking of me?' — As a child, I often wondered this while waiting for my mom to come home from work. But I never asked her. She always came home late in the evening, exhausted. When I misbehaved and she scolded me, she seemed even more worn out, and I felt upset thinking her hardships were all my fault. Only after becoming a parent myself did I realize how wrong I was as a child. How does your mom spend her day? Even though the work each mother does may differ, I hope you'll know that every mother in the world shares the same heart of thinking of, worrying about, and loving her child. - Author's Note","brand":"IBOOKPARK","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49623818633444,"sku":"1430444938","price":21.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0831\/9788\/6692\/files\/x9788955823066.jpg?v=1786422239","url":"https:\/\/ibookpark.com\/en\/products\/%ec%97%84%eb%a7%88%eb%8a%94-%ed%9a%8c%ec%82%ac%ec%97%90%ec%84%9c-%eb%82%b4-%ec%83%9d%ea%b0%81-%ed%95%b4-%ea%b9%80%ec%98%81%ec%a7%84-%ea%b7%b8%eb%a6%bc%ec%b1%85-2","provider":"IBOOKPARK","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
