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!

    5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent for elementary studies of China!
    Reviewed in the United States on January 22, 2021
    Verified Purchase
    We are homeschooling our 7-year-old grandson who reads at a high 3rd grade or low 4th grade level. This book and its seven companion books have been independent reading for him as we focus on all things China during this term. He absolutely loves these books and is now going through them in his spare time for the second time. We have also found them informative as teachers and have learned lots of things about famous people in China and their inventions, discoveries, history, and creations. We like the fact that there are excellent “Did you know?” nuggets of information and review questions at the end of each book, in addition to a map that shows where the events of the book happened. The illustrations are great as well, informative and artistic. Some people have mentioned that these books are too short, but we think that they are just right, particularly with the added facts and questions at the end. They are packed with good and interesting info that children will enjoy without feeling overwhelmed with facts. Our only complaint is that you have to buy each book separately as opposed to the entire collection. But buying them all was definitely worth it!!
