P. 12
I whispered so quietly that I couldn't hear anything.
"My mother...Hit me."

P. 49
"It's Anna....
Is it true what you said before?"

Anna nodded so slightly that no one would notice.
Only I can know.

P. 53~54
I told my grandmother about the whispering game and Anna.
What did Anna whisper to me?
Even the words I whispered to Anna.

"But, Vera,
Whispering among you won't solve it.You know?"


Recommendation

Most abused children hide their abuse.Even in summer, they hide their wounds with thick clothes and hide their inner feelings by acting hostile to others.For such children, the Whisper Game will be a channel through which they can tell the truth in a low voice.It's not easy for a little whisper to become a big echo to the world, but it's possible with observers like Vera.
Whisper Game is a welcome book that tells us the importance of listening to small voices and not pretending not to know the truth.Lee Young-kyun (Director of the Northern Gyeonggi Regional Headquarters of the Green Umbrella Children's Foundation)

Words by Marten Dur (Jieun)

Although our society has a system that guarantees children's rights, it is often not guaranteed.Violence against children is illegal, but violence is still widespread.So I made this book.Whisper Game is a good book to share stories about child violence.Read this book and talk in each home and classroom.So that children can know their rights!

The words of Sophie Louis-Sedam (pictured)

When people actually experience or witness violence, they can't easily tell.What if you found out that your friend was assaulted?You may be hesitant to actively ask what happened.
When that happens, I hope that "Whispering Game" will help to provide space and inspire courage to talk about violence.

Today, my friend, is my neighbor's child safe?
A problematic work that deals sharply and delicately with the issue of child violence in the home!

"My mother...Hit me."
What if my classmates tell me something shocking?!

The Whisper Game that Vera and her friends enjoy at school is a game where friends take turns whispering words.But one day, Anna whispered carefully to Vera.The story of my mom hitting herself.
I can't tell if Anna's mom is hitting Anna or lying!I'd like to ask Anna if it's true, but she's getting quiet and eventually leaves school.As Vera looks at all of this, she gradually realizes that what Anna said is true.But even if I tell my parents, they don't believe me.What should we do with Vera now?Can we save Anna from violence?
The author Morten Durr and Sophie Louise Dham wrote the book to let people know that child violence can be prevented with the attention and help of people around them.That's why he told the story through his neighbor and observer Berry instead of Anna, the party to the violence.And it is configured so that anyone can download learning materials through QR codes on the information page.After reading this book, talk with your children with the learning materials.If we take courage together, we can prevent violence against my friends and neighbors.

the incredible words that a friend whispered into his earBut…What if it's true?!
Dark shadows of child violence from an observer's point of view!

Vera and her friends play 'Whispering Game' to have fun at school.The game is simple.It is a game in which one person sits in a circle and makes up a horse to someone and whispers it, and the person who sits next to you and takes turns to deliver the word to the next person.But while playing the game with my classmates, Anna whispers something surprising to Vera.That Anna's mom hits Anna!
Anna is a little strange around that time.I'm starting to talk less and less and keep a distance from my friends.He runs to the bathroom, saying that he will be scolded by his mother for nothing that got dirty during class, and when he doesn't come to school for a few days and misses the first place in running, he excessively looks at his mother's countenance.Vera is the only one who has noticed this change in Anna.Will Vera be able to pluck up courage for Anna?And can Anna escape her mother's violence?

He recognizes his friend's truth and ends up in violence.
Vera's friendship and courage to save a friend, and what an adult should do!

Whisper Game is a graphic novel on the theme of child violence, and Vera, who accidentally learned of abuse, vividly shows readers how violence can occur around us at any time and how to accept and solve this situation.
Vera is embarrassed by Anna's confession, which sounded like a whisper, and she confides in her parents, but the parents don't take the situation seriously because "Anna's mother didn't seem like she would."Vera is in trouble.A delicate situation where Anna may have lied to herself! But Vera begins to look carefully at Anna and Anna's mother.And Vera gets brave for Anna.
The book features a helper who gave Vera support and advice to encourage her.This is what the grandmother says to Vera, who is struggling in the face of an unbearable situation."Bera, if you whisper among yourself, it won't be solved." (_page 54) My grandmother was a good guide for Vera to help her friend in the right way.
Children who are abused by their parents who are supposed to protect themselves find it difficult to even talk to others.Even if you ask for help like Anna, it's just a little whisper.But Vera did not miss this little whisper.I watch my friend's situation and act actively by asking for help from adults.Readers who have seen this will learn not only how to acknowledge and deal with violent situations, but also have their own roles as friends, neighbors, and adults.

The courage to ask for help without hiding it, and the attitude to listen to small whispers.
A graphic novel that delicately captures the psychological changes of characters!

Whisper Game is a graphic novel written by Denmark's leading children's book author Morten Dur and painted by Sophie Ruisedam, who has been working on animation and cartoons.Even though it is not a long amount, the cuts are effectively organized and the writings and paintings are placed to capture the psychological changes of the characters in surprising detail.Emotions of depression, doubt, and speculation were expressed in purple, and pale feeling and tension were created in blue, gray, and orange.The Whisper Game, which is composed of such understated colors, effectively conveys Vera's psychological changes to readers.
It deals with the theme of child violence, but in this book, violence is hidden from view.Instead, he brings his friend, Vera, to the fore.It is excellent that the topic is solved with the heart and courage to help a friend from the perspective of an observer, not in a way that shows violence directly.
In addition, this book is designed to provide learning materials with books so that schools and institutions can use them.I hope that many classes and institutions can talk, confront, and solve child violence through learning materials.We can create a society where we are willing to listen and reach out, no matter how small the whisper is, as this book shows.The Whisper Game is showing its potential.Just as Vera took courage from hearing Anna's story in this book!
