Jina Jeong loves to read! She’s thrilled when her teacher, Ms. Hunter, assigns everyone in class a reading partner. But Jina’s excitement turns to disappointment when her reading buddy is less than thrilled about this new assignment. Can Jina find a way to change her partner’s mind about books, and what does Jina learn in the process?
Carol Kim believes books and words have a magical ability to change the world, and she writes for children with the hope of spreading some of that magic. She is the author of the picture book biography, King Sejong Invents an Alphabet as well as more than a dozen fiction and nonfiction books for the educational market. Carol loves unearthing real-life stories and little-known facts to share with young readers. She lives in Austin, Texas with her family. Learn more at her website: CarolKimBooks.com. Ahya was born in 2000 to a British Korean family in New Malden, known as London’s ‘Korea Town’. Today, she continues to live there, appreciating the elegant languages and colourful food of both cultures. Ahya’s love for reading and drawing was encouraged by her parents from youth. In 2021, she graduated from the University of Bristol with a degree in Religion and Theology as she enjoyed learning about theological texts and theologians which continue to influence her. Nonetheless, Ahya never stopped loving art, practising Fine Art and eventually picking up digital art, now her preferred medium. She loves expressing heartfelt emotions between characters in a whimsical way, inspired by her Christian faith, the wonders of nature and her love of happy endings in books. When not drawing, you can find her either cosying up with a book and her dog Milk or thrifting for more books
