About the Book

1. The best experts have teamed up to create the best science introductory book!
It's not easy to combine expertise and fun in children's science books. This book gathered top experts from various fields to achieve this challenging goal.
The planning and supervision were handled by researchers from KAIST Science Gifted Education Research Center, who have taught children for a long time. Comprising specialists in physics, chemistry, life sciences, and earth sciences, the research team participated in the entire book production process, from theme selection and table of contents composition to content review and supervision, enhancing the book's completeness.
To deliver learning information engagingly, a webtoon artist created an entertaining story, and a professional writer with a science background checked and supplemented the learning content. The information sections were written by specialists holding degrees in their respective scientific fields.
The characters are brought to life by Heunhannammae, the best creators of our time who need no further introduction, and a veteran illustrator further enhanced their charm.
Thus, under the common goal of developing a high-quality science introductory book for children, who are the leaders of the future, the best production team came together to develop a science learning comic that encompasses both expertise and fun.

2. Science knowledge will naturally accumulate as you read the fun story!
No more science learning comics where the story and learning content are separate! Until now, in science learning comics, the story and learning content often mixed like oil and water, causing children to only read the comic story. "Heunhannammae Science Expedition" skillfully integrates learning information into the story, making sure that learning content is naturally remembered just by reading the comic. Now, enjoy reading the comic and gradually build up your science knowledge without even realizing it!

3. Textbook basics, latest research, and domestic related information!
The foundation of science learning is the textbook. The content of elementary school science textbooks was thoroughly analyzed, divided into volumes by topic, and each volume contains all the textbook content. To systematically deliver scientific knowledge to children, the table of contents was structured and the story created according to the curriculum. Additionally, the content was enriched with topics that children might find interesting, the latest research, and information related to Korea, which are not found in textbooks.

4. It thoroughly answers children's science questions!
The unexpected questions children ask are excellent scientific topics in themselves. During the planning stage, the editorial team conducted a survey and received over 3,000 questions from elementary school students. Among them, the most frequently asked or novel questions were selected, and the main text was structured in a way that answers these questions. What were the science questions your friends were most curious about?

5. Fun and enriching activities too!
At the end of each unit, you can solve fun activities based on the content you've learned. It's full of exciting games like finding rules in animal trains and chain word games.
