This is a rich and poignant story, thanks to the persimmons growing in clusters.
- Book Intro
-
Have you picked a persimmon under a persimmon tree on a hill? When you break the twig of a persimmon tree, the tender and sweet persimmon falls down out of it. The child who used to pick up the persimmon under the persimmon tree has now grown into a mother and an author - but she is still pacing around under the persimmon tree.
An Hyorim, the author who made us smile with the soft and vigorous illustrations drawn with the pastel in her first picture book, Who Are You?, has brought us this time a softer and warmer autumn. Autumn is this picture book itself.

(English) The waves come ceaselessly in various shapes
while we look elsewhere, while we are tired of waiting, and while we forget expecting them to come.
We grow playing with the waves.
Here I introduce you to another wave of mine, Here Come the Waves, different from Who Are You and When a Persimmon Tree Calls.
