I Am An Amazing Asian Girl
Following the success of Asian Adventures A–Z, Jade was invited by ByYQ to illustrate their second children’s book, I Am An Amazing Asian Girl. This time, the focus was on celebrating inspiring Asian women across different cultures, professions, and backgrounds. Collaborating closely with the author, Jade helped shape the activity concepts for each scene and conducted in-depth research to ensure accurate and meaningful representation. Featured figures include Christine Ha, Eileen Gu, Licypriya Kangujam, and many others, offering young readers role models they can relate to and look up to. The book has been widely distributed to preschools and is well-loved by children, parents, and educators alike. The book is available at Singapore National Library and for purchase on Amazon.
“This is an excellent read for young Asian girls. Through positive affirmations, they will feel more confident and feel happier with who they are. I love how through the illustrations, we see different Asian girls, diverse Asian foods, and clothes. Each of the positive words in the book starts with A. The illustrations are beautiful! Love the colors. Such a happy tone to it.” - Kay B.
