Hyewon Yum

#kidlit superstar Hyewon Yum will be mesmerizing us all with her abilities this Wednesday. I am so impressed with her ability to make characters that feel so curious and real. The proportions in her images always add just the right touch of charm. Join me in welcoming @yumhyewon this Wednesday day at 8pm Eastern, on insta, on Gab ‘n’ Doodle. #kidlit #kidlitart #illustration #kidlitillustration

Happy Mother's Day! She was always there for me every birthday. When i had a baby, she came over all the way and helped me for a month, made miyeokguk every day. She was the inspiration for this book A SPOONFUL OF THE SEA. 엄마, 고맙습니다 #엄마 #미역국 #mothersday❤️ #aspoonfulofthesea

🩷 Tita, é a maravilhosa sugestão de hoje. Uma história de @yumhyewon editada pela Fábula, uma chancela da @penguinkidspt . 📓 Tita conta-nos a história de uma menina que nasce com uma marca na testa, algo visível, impossível de ignorar, e que aos seus olhos a torna diferente de todos os outros. Quando começa a escola, o medo de não ser aceite instala-se e tenta esconder aquilo que a distingue, acreditando que assim será mais fácil pertencer. Mas é através de um encontro inesperado, e de um olhar curioso em vez de julgador, que descobre que a diferença não é um erro a corrigir, mas uma parte bonita daquilo que ela é. 💬 Uma narrativa delicada sobre identidade, vulnerabilidade e a coragem de nos mostrarmos ao mundo tal como somos. Hyewon Yum escreve com delicadeza sobre algo que todas as crianças (e adultos) conhecem: o desconforto de se sentirem diferentes. Uma história simples e bonita, sobre aceitação, identidade, amizade e amor próprio, mas acima de tudo é um livro que nos lembra que aquilo que tentamos esconder pode ser exatamente o que nos torna memoráveis. Porque às vezes, é quando deixamos de disfarçar quem somos, que começamos verdadeiramente a pertencer. ❓Alguma vez escondeste algo em ti por medo de não seres aceite? _____________________________________________________________________ #LeituraInfantil #AmorPróprio #EducaçãoEmocional #LivrosQueTransformam #CrescerComLivros

👧 Tita 👧 De tempos a tempos a Penguin ensina-nos a ser melhores pessoas. Não só aos mais novos, mas também a nós, os crescidos, que parece que nos estamos a esquecer de valores como a empatia, a amizade e a solidariedade. Este livro conta-nos a história de uma menina que nasceu com uma marca de nascença. A Tita. Essa menina, como tantas outras acha-se diferente, a marca incomoda-a. Reparam muito nela. Demasiado. Mas conta-nos também que a amizade e o amor são a cura para tudo. E tu, tens alguma Tita?

I’m excited to be part of Love Luggage: Illustrators Unite for Foster Kids with @unclaimedbag and the Society of Illustrators this Saturday, May 2 from 11am-3pm. Stop by for this special community event in recognition of National Foster Care Month, where we’re transforming luggage into something meaningful. I’ll be creating a one-of-a-kind suitcase live alongside a group of incredible illustrators. You can even pick up a brush - guests of all ages are invited to help paint suitcases that will be donated directly to foster youth. Hope to see you there! Saturday, May 2 11:00am - 3:00pm Society of Illustrators (@soi128 ) Free + open to the public!

Dress-up shoes for the playground? A tutu in the snow? Goose loves to show her big sister, Miranda, the imaginative, sparkly, and often unexpected outfits she put on. 👙👗🧤 “TA-DA!” Goose says, and then she’s ready for school in her bathing suit! “Oh, Goose!” says her sister Miranda. But Miranda is gentle and always offers Goose suggestions for making her choices work. MY SISTER, GOOSE is a sweet sibling story available now wherever you get your books! 💖
