Hi! I’m Jillian, the author of children’s books about the history and culture of China, even though I live all the way Down Under.

I’m also a mother of two, and my children are the main reason I started writing books. When they were still little, I had to delve into my Chinese roots for a family reunion. That’s when I stumbled on the most amazing stories about the emperors, warriors, artists, and inventors that make up the long and colorful culture and history of China.

Inspired, I decided to bring these stories to life, so that my kids could learn more about their Chinese heritage. No dates, no dry details—just interesting stories that they could enjoy and hopefully, learn a fact or two in the process. Luckily, they liked them so much that they encouraged me to share my stories with the world.

Visit my website www.jillianlin.com to get a free e-book and find out more about my book series ‘Heroes of China’ (3-6 years), ‘Once Upon A Time In China’ (6-12 years) and 'Fun Festivals' (3-6 years). I hope you’ll enjoy reading them!

Perfect for kids! Clear, bright illustrations and concise English and Chinese text.
I ordered every single available book off of Amazon for teaching my kids about the Dragon Boat Festival. This is one of my favorites. It is clearly Illustrated with cute pictures and very informative. The first part of the book is a story about a family celebrating the Dragon Boat Festival. The second part of the book talks about the history behind the festival. The way that they treat the poet's suicide is very kid-friendly. The third part of the book shows modern-day pictures of people celebrating the festival. The book is written in both English and simplified Chinese. I wish I could get this book in hardback, this is one to keep!

    Exactly what I was looking for! A cute story, then the origins of the festival after that some facts and questions to start a conversation and to inspire further research. I honestly love Jillian Lin’s books, she is an author I look for first!

    I bought this for my next-door neighbor - he is 4 years old. This is a book I can read to him in English and his grandparents can read to him as well, in Chinese. The Dragon Boat Festival is a culturally significant holiday, this explains the traditions and story with great illustrations and is appropriate for all ages.
