Ling Lee

Ling Lee was born in Guangzhou, China and moved to the U.S. when she was 4. She spent many Sunday afternoons attending Chinese school and now appreciates her early language exposure. When Ling and Eric's sons were born, they wanted to give their children the same language opportunity so that they could better connect with their culture and communicate with their grandparents. Ling and Eric scoured the internet for bilingual kids' books and struggled to find well-illustrated books that had Chinese, pinyin, and English. That's when they decided to create their own stories, both to read to their sons and to share with other parents looking to introduce Chinese to their young readers. Ling currently resides in the San Francisco Bay Area.
