Jin Wang is from the tiny village of Nan Ba Zi, a province of Inner Mongolia. When she was thirty-five, she moved to the United States--where she taught herself English by watching videos on YouTube. Jin is a yoga instructor in California, and met the co-author of this book, Tony Johnston, when she was a student in her class. <p/>Tony Johnston is the prolific author of over one hundred books, including Winter is Coming, illustrated by Jim LaMarche, which received four starred reviews. Her picture book Spencer and Vincent, The Jellyfish Brothers, received a starred review from Bulletin Center Children's Books and was called "quirky [and] sweet," by Publishers Weekly. Johnston lives in San Marino, California, where she grew up. <p/>Anisi Baigude is the illustrator of Hunger Hacket's Odi's Library Day, which was the first book to be published by the San Diego Public Library. Anisi's artwork is inspired by the natural world and the places she grew up in, including China, Japan, Massachusetts, and California. She graduated from the University of California, San Diego with a degree in Studio Art. Born in Inner Mongolia, Anisi now lives in San Diego.
