Dear friends and publishers,
I hope all is well with you.
Today I would like to introduce a picture-book author and illustrator Da Wu and share his upcoming works with you.
Da Wu was born in the early 1990s. He is a picture book author and illustrator who has previously worked as an illustrator for Keigo Higashino, Li Juan, and Liu Liangcheng's works. His picture book, The King of Trees, published by Beijing Poplar Publishing House in 2019, was named by dPICTUS in 2019 as one of the "World's 100 Outstanding Picture Books" and was featured at the Frankfurt Book Fair. Later, The Bird and the Statue won the New Talent Prize at the BIBF Ananas International Illustration Exhibition. His works have been translated into Spanish and Danish.
"Da Wu's perception is remarkable; he sees magic in the mundane," said Zhang Hong, a Chinese children's literature author and founder of the Magic Children's Book Club.
Da Wu's stories follow his exploration and metaphors for life and relationships, combined with his healing and bright art style, like a beautiful postcard. We hope that both young readers and adults will be able to easily enter and explore Da Wu's picture book world.
