Overview

This series of books tells the story of seven-year-old Oki and her grandmother looking for wild greens in the hills and mountains.

Book Intro

Oki's Story is a series of illustrated books that tells the stories of good, honest people who live as one with nature with a seasonal background of spring, summer, autumn, and winter. We've all had neighbors living in harmony with nature. These books are perfect for looking back at our neighbors as well as our own lives.

Oki is surrounded by loved ones, from her grandmother to quirky neighbors such as Yeongsik's grandma, Byeol's grandpa, Hongtaek's grandma, Jeongsim, Sun, and more. The lovely people of Oki's village live simple, honest lives in harmony with nature.

This precious series of illustrated books captures nature and the friendly faces of people we all need to meet in this day and age.

Oki, being raised by her grandmother, is a child who loves playing in nature and experiences everything it has to offer.

Oki, who enjoys a life that all children deserve to experience, is a true reflection of childlike purity.

Cho Haeran, the author, is serious yet whimsical, flashy yet simple, and lively yet deep.

Cho affectionately illustrates the past, future, humor, warmth, nature, and people in her books.

She has spent five years writing about and illustrating the mountains, fields, shores, markets, and villages of Seosan, her hometown. Cho's unique and vivid illustrations bring the beauty of nature, delightful humanity, and joy of sharing to audiences in a meaningful way, and her witty and lyrical dialogues will leave a smile on the faces of readers to be cherished for a long time to come.

Every year when fall comes, Cho feels the richness of nature through yellow flowers, rice, the moon, and ginkgo leaves. She says she will continue picking up the yellow leaves even when she gets older. Books both written and drawn by Cho Haeran include A Sparrow, Noya's Farm Is Always Busy!, A Story of Ms. Park, Mr. Lettuce, and the Where Are You Going, Grandma? Series.
