b'\\u201cPublishers thought it was maybe going to be a niche book, but I was surprised by how many really young readers were connecting with it. I want this to be something that you could trick your conservative dad into buying for you.\\u201d\\nJen Wang is an award-winning graphic novel author and illustrator Jen Wang - best known for some amazing stories like \\u201cStargazing,\\u201d \\u201cThe Prince & the Dressmaker\\u201d, \\u201cIn Real Life\\u201d and \\u201cKoko Be Good\\u201d. We\\u2019ve been fans of hers for a really long time. Her books are not-quite-autobiographical (always), but there are seeds of truth and real life in almost every story she tells. Being Asian American, having a major healthcare scare as a kid, and more. And since Sharon\\u2019s off doing who knows what, Raman\\u2019s Quarantined Comics co-host Ryan Joe subs in FTW. But most interesting about our chat with Jen was diving into her unconventional journey and decisions along the way. We challenge you to give Jen\\u2019s books a try - for you and your kids - and NOT find your eyes start leaking.\\nLEARN ABOUT JEN\\n\\nJenwang.net\\n\\ninstagram.com/wangstagram\\n\\ntwitter.com/alooghobi\\n\\nBOOK: Stargazing - goodreads.com/book/show/40864836-stargazing\\n\\n\\nBOOK: The Prince & The Dressmaker - goodreads.com/book/show/34506912-the-prince-and-the-dressmaker\\n\\n\\nMENTIONS\\n\\nBOOK: Detransition, Baby (Torrey Peters) - goodreads.com/book/show/48890225-detransition-baby\\n\\n\\nPERSON: Ang Lee (Director): wikipedia.org/wiki/Ang_Lee\\n\\n\\n\\nLearn more about your ad choices.
