This is not an ordinary book: it's a BookCrossing book! BookCrossing books are world travelers - they like to have adventures and make new friends...and every once in a while they even write home to say what they've been doing.

Apologies if I didn't get the title right: the ISBN search didn't call up the book, so I'm using an online Korean keyboard to try to input the characters.

This is part of a batch of books I rescued from in front of the little Korean church in the neighborhood: they all took some water damage but most of them are still readable (well, if you read Korean, which I unfortunately do not).

I don't read Korean, so a friend translated the label for me; any errors are probably mine.

Children's hardcover: Doosan Dong-a World Masterpiece #37.
