Am I just a timid little kimchi? No way—I’m totally awesome!

This story, which seems to be about a “timid little kimchi,” is actually the story of “timid little me,” for whom even a small errand felt overwhelming. Through a playful back-and-forth between Ollie and Kimchi, this book encourages readers not to hide their shyness away, but instead to lay it out on the canvas of imagination and examine it with open eyes. Here, our small, quiet feelings aren’t concealed behind quick judgments or hasty gestures but are revealed and appreciated, shining just as they are in a warm, kind gaze. Here, even the tiniest heart can blossom with imagination larger than the universe itself—an “awesome” world, indeed.
