[이야기꽃 그림책] 비밀이야

Is this not the cutest children’s book cover ever? My former student (who still keeps in touch) is now a university student majoring in art wrote and illustrated this book for one of his courses. Is being a teacher like being a mom where you think your kid’s work is amazeballs no matter what? haha.

He’s pretty nonchalant and NBD about his work and I want to teach him to take pride in his work as an artist so if anyone would like to donate a suggested minimum of $3 dollars, I will email you a PDF copy of this Korean children’s book. It’s a cute story with great artwork. Ten pages out of the book have short Korean sentences on it. The Paypal link to donate and get my email is below cuz I can’t figure out how to get the damn button here. Of course i’ll send him everything and can post his response too. https://www.paypal.com/donate?token=_DOXVIl5mLW7VrfMulPQ0jas7afsF5SYpknV-ZRnM8KDUcR-arRhnAAeA-HkvjKK_pPjIG&country.x=US&locale.x=US

Share this post if your Korean sucks like mine and you can only handle children’s books.
