Author Visits

Meeting an author/illustrator is inspiring, joyful, and downright cool. It's always interesting to hear how they are inspired to write and create stories. We've been honored to have some of the most acclaimed authors and illustrators visit our school and talk with our students. Thanks to our partnership with Books & Books we are able to instill the love of reading and writing in our students.

Eva Chen

"I Am Golden" is a joyful and lyrical picture book from New York Times bestselling author Eva Chen and illustrator Sophie Diao. It is a moving ode to the immigrant experience, as well as a manifesto of self-love for Chinese American children.

What do you see when you look in the mirror, Mei? Do you see beauty?

We see eyes that point toward the sun, that give us the warmth and joy of a thousand rays when you smile. We see hair as inky black and smooth as a peaceful night sky. We see skin brushed with gold.
