Picture 1

One day, there lived a mother together with her daughter named Dalla. They live in a village
called Gangnam. Gangnam is known as a beautiful and peaceful village, where the residents are
very friendly and modest.

Picture 2

one day, her mother left a writing in Dalla's agenda book containing,
Dear Dalla,
I will visit your grandmother on Jeju island. Forgive me who could not invite you, because this
incident was very sudden and I must immediately get there as soon as possible. Wait for mom at
home and don't go anywhere! I will definitely come back to see you.

with love,

your mom

Dalla passed day after day without her mother's presence. She can only wait her mother by
singing a song to ease her longing for her mother.

Picture 4

A month passed, her mom still had not come.

"I can't keep sitting still just to wait for my mother's arrival. Yes ..I have to look for it !!!."
With full determination, she ventured to walk down the river looking for someone who saw his
mother's departure at that time.

Two hours passed, Dalla was still walking along the river without stopping. Until she met a duck
who was swimming by the river.
"Excuse me, have you ever seen my mother go 1 month ago?" said Dalla.
" I took your mother to the river mouth at that time. I think your mother will ride a whale to go to
Jeju island" answered a duck.
"Thank you very much duck" I said.

Picture 6

Dalla met the whale. She rides the whale while saying "Do you remember the woman who got
you to Jeju Island?."
"Yes, she sent me down at Jeju Island" answer the whale."

After Dalla set foot for the first time on Jeju island. She was confused where to look for her
mother first. Until dusk arrived, but she had not received any clues to look for her mother's
whereabouts. Dalla who began to despair, then she tried to climb a very large tree to see the
contents of the island from above the height.

Picture 8

Dalla saw a pair of birds who were about to return to their respective nests."Have you ever seen a
woman visiting this island?" shouted Dalla to the birds.

"We have never seen any visitors coming here" answered a pair of birds.

Picture 9

Dalla looked for her mother without stopping to the corners of the island. Not forget she also
asked all the creatures she met. But all said that nobody knew about her mother's whereabouts.
"Where is my mother?” and hundreds of questions suddenly haunted her mind.

Finally she met a bear was a soldier from Jeju’s kingdom on the road to the forest. He had seen
Dalla's mother in the kingdom recently.
"Actually, your mother was detained by royal soldiers, because your mother entered without
permission." said the bear.
"What is my mother's current situation?" asked Dalla.
"I don’t know but I will help you as much as possible" said the bear.
"Thank you very much bear" replied Dalla.

Picture 11

In the dark night, Dalla arrived in the kingdom safely. Then, came a group of fireflies that
accompanied Dalla's small steps."Do you know where is my mother?" Asked Dalla to fireflies.
"Dalla, your mother is already among the stars in the sky. Don't worry" whisper fireflies.

Picture 12

Dalla took the stairs so she could go up to the sky. She climbed millions of steps to reach among
the stars.
"Did you see my mother?" Dalla shouted.
But none of the stars answered Dalla's question. The question was explored by Dalla thousands
of times, but there was no response from the stars. Finally, she took one star to write her petition,
she wanted to meet her mother even if only one time. Then Dalla returned to the mainland.

Picture 13

Suddenly, an angel that carrying a lantern came from a distance. It turned out that the angel was
her mother. "I miss you so much mom. Let's go home together" answer Dalla. "I can't go home
with you, one day we will definitely meet again" answered her mother in a low voice.

Bukkkkk ... My body fell from the bed. Then I opened my eyes slowly and I saw that my
mother.
"Dalla, let's wake up. Hurry up!" said her mother. Thank God it turned out that it was all just a
dream. The
