Wow these illustrations. The spirit tiger who swallows fire! You could swear it moves on the page.
We love this story of Soe-In, a child in Korea who is brave enough to help the spirit tiger who has accidentally swallowed the sun. Themes of courage, taking care of each other, and believing in yourself make this picture book worth a read. But holy toozles you have got to see the illustrations!
I am in awe of Hanna Cha. Take a look at her illustrations! I’d like to request that Korean Stories Told in Alphabets be published as a book next, it is incredible. Also, she has enamel pins of Soe-In on her website, so….. yes you’re right I need one.
Tiny Feet Between the Mountains is available on Amazon and Bookshop.
