- Book Intro
-
This book features seven stories that change ordinary lives into something unusual and fascinating through brilliant events. Included in the book is The Backbone of the Sports Field, which is introduced on the cover of the book and features children and a playground that has turned into a giant and showed itself to children. In Better than Rulu, an ordinary dog changes himself into a human, and in Well Done Elephants, home appliances morph into animals in the middle of the night and make a mess in the kitchen. In Today's Luck, a frog jumps from a rock and reaches the sky, where the clouds float. Woo Mi-ok uses her imagination to change ordinary places such as schools or houses and ordinary things like dogs or home appliances into something that is very unusual. On the surface, this does not make sense. However, with the persuasion of the author, readers will come to see an ordinary person, subject, or space with a completely different perspective after reading The Backbone of the Sports Field.

Park Jina
Park Jina (F), born in Gwangju in 1991, studied Illustration at Kingston University in England. While I Was Kim Soyeon-Jina is the second children's book she has illustrated, following The Backbone of the Sports Field. Because she has the same name as the main character of the book, "Jina," she was very absorbed in the book as she drew the pictures.
