Este libro es fantástico, los dibujos son muy hermosos y el mensaje me encanta, llega justo a tiempo cuando mis hijas estan aprendiendo a superar sus fallas y a levantarse después de sus caidas (a veces literalmente). Mis hijas le gusta el libro y me han pedido leerlo varias veces desde que lo recibi.
Dayeon Auh, gracias por escribir libros!
This book is fantastic. The drawings are beautiful, and I love the message. It comes just in time as my daughters are learning to overcome their failures and pick themselves up after their falls (sometimes literally). My daughters love the book and have asked to read it several times since I received it.
Dayeon Auh, thank you for writing books!

Me encanto este cuento. El artwork y las imágenes me gustaron mucho. La historia se trata de tu perspectiva.

This book was a joy reading. The art style was unique and can easily be replicated by children. This is good as it models the early literacy skill of writing. The story was interesting. It contained a good lesson of being courageous. This book can be entertaining for both children and adults.
Such a good book.

A really sweet story perfect to share with young kids who are afraid of the unknown. While also being a good read for adults who fear change and growing older. The artwork was beautiful and I loved each picture that was included in the story.

Dayeon Auh ha recreado un antiguo cuento popular coreano. Un abuelo debe atravesar la Montaña del Espanto para llegar al mercado, pero resbala y cae en el camino. Cuando se enferma tres años después, está seguro de que debe haber una conexión. Pero la nieta inspira a su triste abuelo a ver su caída desde una perspectiva completamente nueva.
El libro termina con estas palabras: Contada e ilustrada pro Dayeon Auh con imágenes maravillosas y las palabras perfectas. ¡No podría estar más de acuerdo!
Un agradecimiento especial a María José Ferreda y Silke Kleeman quienes tradujeron este libro ilustrado del alemán al español.
Para mayor claridad, recibí este libro de NetGalley y NorthSouth Books a cambio de una reseña honesta.
Dayeon Auh has fashioned a retelling of an old Korean folktale. A old man must travel through Scary Mountain to get to the market, and he slips and falls in route. When the old man falls ill three years later, he’s SURE there must be a connection! But the old man’s granddaughter inspires her sad grandfather to look at his fall in a completely new light.
The book ends with these words: Told and illustrated by Dayeon Auh with wonderful images and perfect words. I couldn't agree more!
Special thanks to María José Ferreda and Silke Kleeman who translated this picture book from German into Spanish.
In the interest of full disclosure, I received this book from NetGalley and NorthSouth Books in exchange for an honest review.
