Join us and meet illustrator Tracy Subisak in celebration of her latest book, Amah Faraway!
A delightful story of a child's visit to a grandmother and home far away, and of how families connect and love across distance, language, and cultures.
"This is a poignantly emotional and highly relatable story for children whose grandparents or other family members might live far away, but also one that teaches universal lessons about overcoming fears of the unfamiliar." -School Library Journal
TRACY SUBISAK can’t stop thinking about being back in Taipei, eating youtiao and doujiang (soy milk) with her Amah and Mama. Tracy is the daughter of a Taiwanese mother and Polish-American father. She lived in Taipei for a bit as an adult and saw her Amah every week, ate delicious night market snacks, and enjoyed every detail of beautiful Taiwan. She is the author-illustrator of Jenny Mei Is Sad, and has illustrated books including award-winning Shawn Loves Sharks by Curtis Manley and Wood, Wire, Wings by Kirsten Larson.
