Our children learn by reading us
"A thoughtful and optimistic work of healing wisdom." -Kirkus Book Review
2022 Independent Publisher Book Award - Gold Medal, Children's Book Illustration, Ebook
We believe that learning & living out racial justice starts at home, including on our bookshelves. That is why we wrote and illustratrated, We Are Gems: Healing from Anti-Asian Microaggressions through Self-love & Solidarity (ages 8+).
We Are Gems helps readers to critically question microaggressions against Asian Americans while embracing one's heritage and supporting Black and Indigenous-led movements for healing and justice. It is a joyous celebration of Asian Americans and our history.
