Cherry studied in China and was an exchange student to Japan during her young age. Her family then moved to Canada and she continued her study and finished university in Vancouver. She is married and has two beautiful children, at age 8 and 3.
The major challenge for her in organizing the Superpen Creative Book Writing Contest was to arrange an online platform for 63 kids from different countries to meet together for writing stories of the two chapter books, one in Chinese and the other one in English. And she often needed to speak in trilingual to make sure everyone got the same ideas and they were on the same page. The whole writing project lasted for 6 weeks including meetings, discussions, presenting, writing and illustrations. The final version of the writing and illustrations were submitted to the publisher for further development.
The Chinese book is called 星星超人學府之SPYS星球科學交流團。The story include the translation of the first book, Kids Power Academy: Superheroes Assembly and a new short story in each chapter regarding science discovery in the translation. This will be the first Chinese version of the series and estimated publishing date is by mid of January.
The English book is called ‘Supernova Pandemic’. The plot and outline the story was prepared by the Spokeslady of Kids Power Academy, Ms Alia Kong, 10. She led the other 24 kids to write each chapter story of the book together. Alia got the inspiration from the pandemic, and she expand the story of the pandemic to the universe. It will be a super amazing one, stay tuned for the book launches.
About Dr. Cherry Bee, the very futuristic character appears in both the Chinese and English book, Cherry said she designed and created it a long time ago. Alia Kong illustrated it for her. At first she just called it Cherry Bee. Since the theme of the two books are about Science, the character earned its title as Dr. Cherry Bee who is in charge of battling universal crisis by using her extraordinary Science knowledge. Dr. Cherry Bee can use telepathy to send messages director to other’s minds. Her two cherries on her head are like antennas, receiving every intel that she might need.
Cherry’s vision is she wants to invite more children and parents to join Kids Power Society to witness a new revolution has risen. Our children are in the era of commercial spacecraft travel, AI community, diversity in learning knowledge at school, nurturing more creations and less in repeating the existing information.
She believes Creativity and Science are the key to the new future, new universe and a new dimension.
