"The greatest thing about having written a book is knowing that you have written one. It has emboldened me in many parts of my life in thinking, \'Well, if I can do this, maybe I can do something else.\'" Actor John Cho joins Zibby to discuss his debut middle-grade novel, Troublemaker, which was inspired by his own life. John shares how his memories of the Rodney King Riots feel resonant today, the universal emotions of growing up and trying to find ways to feel like an adult when you\'re still a child, and what his anxiety has looked like following the uptick in anti-Asian violence over the past few years. On a lighter note, John tells Zibby what he hopes younger readers will take away from this story and what he\'s looking to do with it next.
