Description: Learn From and Follow the Power People! In childhood, it's important to have a role model to look up to. A single book read by chance can shape the course of a person's entire life. During early childhood, the people around us—especially our parents—play an essential role. Since this is a time of admiration and imitation of parents, it's important for parents to model good character through their words and actions. As children grow, they begin to choose role models based on their own dreams and ideals, and at this stage, it becomes especially important to encounter role models from diverse fields. Looking back through history, we find great figures who changed the world in their respective fields. The world calls them "Power People"—those who changed the world and influenced our lives. This series introduces, in depth and breadth, the life stories of Power People from Korea and abroad who live on through history and the present day, becoming role models for countless people. Through their stories, readers learn about the will and wisdom found in overcoming hardship, failure, and success. ◈ Content Structure and Key Features 1.
