About the Author

Yobe Qiu

I started my career as a preschool teacher during my junior year in college. There I read dozens of children’s books everyday for my students. As an educator, I taught children and their families to embrace love and diverse cultures. One of my favorite unit studies is the Winter Holidays where we talk about Hanukkah, Christmas, Kwanzaa, New Years - but when it came time for Lunar New Year, I couldn’t find a book that featured the holiday in a inclusive way. Most of the books out there were about either the Chinese New Year or Vietnamese New Year - but i had other AAPI children in my schools. That was when the idea of my first book, Our Lunar New Year was born.

Fast forward a few years, I dedicated my passion for writing to create children’s books that featuring Asian characters and cultures. Today, I am most proud to publish books that help children like my daughter feel seen, heard, and represented.
