EMILY SHAN

As a Cantonese speaker who attended Chinese school for only five years, I found limited options of bilingual books that I could actually read myself. Most bilingual Chinese/English books are catered towards Mandarin speakers with pinyin.

My goal is to create more resources for Cantonese speaking families in an effort to pass down the language to future generations. I believe language is an integral part of my culture and it is essential for Jojo to be able to communicate with her grandparents and other family members.
