Grace Lin is an American author and illustrator of children’s books – from picture books to novels. She is a New York Times bestselling author. Grace grew up wanting to be an ice skater, but she didn’t have the attributes required to make it in that world. Instead, it was the pictures she drew that became her focus. She attended the Rhode Island School of Design, and set her goals on doing children’s books. Thus far in her career, she’s been awarded such honours as the American Booksellers Association’s “Pick of the List,” Bank’s Street College Best Books of the Year, Growing Good Kids Book Award Classic, Newbery Honor, Al Roker‘s Today Show Kid’s Book Club, Theodor Geisel Honor and many more. Aside from her books, Grace is a New York Times reviewer, an advocate for diversity, and a commentator for New England Public Radio. She lives in Florence, Massachusetts with her husband and daughter.

Grace Lin made her debut as an author and illustrator in 1999 with the picture book The Ugly Vegetables. Her debut novel, The Year of the Dog, was published in 2006. Below is a list of Grace Lin’s books in order of when they were originally released:
