When four-year-old Madison turned reading time into an inquisition about why she was Chinese, unlike the characters in her favorite books, Madison's father knew something had to change. 。
Jerry Zhang decided to take things into his own hands and publish a book that fills a bit of the gaping hole in the children's book market when it comes to Asian-American representation.。

The Kickstarter netted more than $28,000, nearly six times its original goal. Zhang plans to use the extra money to fund even more books.。

"I created the character Pepper Zhang because when Madison was a little over two and a half, I couldn't find any interesting, illustrated children's books that featured an Asian child as a main character or hero of the story," Zhang said in a Kickstarter video, explaining that many of the books he did find focused specifically on cultural experiences.。

Thanks for signing up!。

"While it's important for children to learn about their cultures through books," Zhang wrote on the crowdfunding page, "it's equally important for Asian children to see themselves represented in books as interesting and smart individuals rather than just products of their cultures."。
