About

I grew up with books and daydreams in Caracas, Venezuela. Once a environmental attorney protecting oceans, I'm not the author of the MG sci-fi novel HANA HSU AND THE GHOST CRAB NATION (Razorbill 2022) and the contemporary MG novels, NEAR AND DEER (Scholastic 2024) and MANATEE'S BEST FRIEND (Scholastic 2021). My picture book A MORNING WITH GRANDPA, illustrated by Christina Forshay (Lee & Low 2016) was the 2013 Lee and Low New Voices Award winner. I'm represented by Jennifer March Soloway of the Andrea Brown Literary Agency. Check out my website at enjoyingplanetearth.com or follow me on Twitter @artsylliu.I co-run the award-winning kid lit resource website kidlit411.com.
