(English) Jang Hyun-Jung likes to observe the beauty nature gives us and transfer the feelings exactly into pictures. Occasionally, she listens carefully to the many sounds of the world and imagines the life and colors the sounds are telling her about. Then, a world she had never imagined unfolds in front of her eyes. On a hot summer day, she quietly closed her eyes and listened to cicadas' cry for a long time. What are the sounds of summer cicadas telling us? The Chirrup is her first picture book.
