🤩🥢✨📚😍 I *adored* joining the inaugural 1000 Book Festival today with TRICKY CHOPSTICKS and SPARKLES FOR SUNNY! Had a blast running fun book-based activities, chatting with families, and cheering with the amazing festival organizers, volunteers and of course #Kidlit creators!

✨🥢📚🥳 Just made this new chopsticks pom-pom tossing game for TRICKY CHOPSTICKS. Super excited to bring this book-based fun to the #1000bookfestival, plus a DIY sparkly keychain activity for SPARKLES FOR SUNNY. Want to do one or both? Come find me this Saturday in Marlboro, NY!

🤩🥢📚🥳It was my absolute honor to accept the 2025-2026 Keystone to Reading Book Award (Primary) for TRICKY CHOPSTICKS in person at this year’s KSLA conference! I adored spending time with you all and I can’t thank KSLA and all the wonderful students in PA enough for voting it as your fave.*Thank you*!

😍💫🫶 Feeling super lucky that my first writing retreat ever was the 5th year anniversary Asian American Community Retreat at Boyds Mills, hosted by Debbi Michiko Florence & Grace Lin! So soul-filling meeting with AAPI creators, sharing our dreams, and cheering each other on.

🥳💫🤩 I *love* going into NYC! This time I signed my books at McNally Jackson/Rockefeller Center, B&N/5th Ave, and the NYPL/5th & 40th (their guest book too!). Also went to the cool Menmin Made pop-up @ Pearl River Mart, Great NY Noodletown, & NEZHA show @ Sheen Center with my older son Mac. So fun!
