Waiting for Mama is a bilingual book (Korean and English) that shares the central message of perseverance. The main character is a small child waiting patiently for his mother. The book takes place in a city in Korea.

I liked this book because of the unique illustrations to display what is happening. The author and illustrator worked together to show a passing of time with a few pages with just illustrations.

There are three reasons why I liked this book and one why I did not like this book. The first reason I enjoyed this book was the language. There were some repetitions in some phrases, like , "Isn't my mama coming? " Although a simple read and the fact that not all pages had text, this was pretty detailed and descriptive. " The child stands still, even though the wind blows hard." this is so simple , but if you close your eye you can just see the little boy waiting quietly in the cold. The second reason I enjoyed this book was that it had its originally language text, Korean, which I thought was fabulous. The final reason I enjoyed this book was the illustrations. the illustrator used, what i believe is, watercolor paints to create the different scenes. The illustrator also does wonders setting the time in 1930s Korea.
The one reason I did not like this book was the ending, the author doesn't tell you if the little boy gets back together with his mama. This was left to the illustrator. If you look closely at the last two pages you'll see the little boy holding his mamas hand.

The ending was not very clear to me at first. I had to read it again to realize that Mama did in fact come home. This is a sad, dreary tale, however I am glad I read it.
