Presenting Avatar's iconic intro sequence remixed with Chinese character to emoji transformations. Our book, The Hanmoji Handbook, features a different set of elements (💦🌏🔥🪙🌲 rather than 💦🌏🔥💨) but I still tried to slip an Avatar Ang cameo into an early draft of the book (unsuccessfully 🥲).

It's the first day of FOLD Kids 2022❗️ We're involved in three events with the festival, but more importantly, that means our video introducing our book, The Hanmoji Handbook, to educators is out (☝🏼👀).

You can find our clip alongside videos featuring other young adult authors/books that are participating in #FOLDkids22 on their Youtube channel.

More information about Fold Kids 2022 on their website — including details on the hanmoji and DIY comics workshops we're running, and the illustrator battle I'm participating in.
