作者介紹
作者介紹 Andrea Wang is the award-winning author of the picture books The Nian Monster (Asian Pacific American Award for Literature Honor), Magic Ramen (Freeman Book Award Honor), and Watercress. The Many Meanings of Meilan is her debut middle-grade novel. The first character in Andrea's Chinese name is an archaic one that means fragrant, but her parents' friends all thought it was the character for jade, which sounds exactly the same. That sparked her lifelong interest in names and identity. She'd much rather be a rock than smelly. Andrea likes to write about family, food, and culture. She spent her childhood in Ohio and Boston and now lives in Colorado with her family.
