奇妙的书 Text & illustrations by YangSifan 40pp, 21.5 x 26 cm, Age 2+, silent book Magic Elephant Books, December 2016 Korean language rights under negotiation.

Books are truly incredible, aren't they? Throughout history, wise individuals have attempted to answer the question of their amazingness, each with their own unique perspective. It's a question that continues to captivate us throughout our lives. Even animals like ostriches, penguins, mice, crocodiles, and giraffes have their own distinct views on reading. The same book can elicit different reactions from a crocodile and a
giraffe. Ostriches can immerse themselves in a book and momentarily forget about the dangers around them. And imagine an elephant engaging in conversation with an ancient mammoth through the pages of a book...
These questions were addressed by various animals in the Amazing Books:
What exactly is the essence of a book? What function does it serve? Where can it take us? Each spread in this wordless book tells a gripping story, enabling the young readers to embark on imaginary travels.
