1992년 출간된 위기철의 동화다. 오랫동안 구전되던 이야기를 동화로 풀어내었다. 울던 아이들이 '곶감'이라는 말에 울음을 그친다는 옛 이야기를 목판화와 함께 구성해 이야기의 흥미를 높였다.

This children’s picture book by Wi Kichul was published in 1992. Based on a folktale, the book tells the story of a crying child who is placated by a dried persimmon. The story is accompanied by woodblock prints, enhancing the story’s appeal to children.
