Eugenia Yoh

Albany Public Library - Edith Stone Room
FREE TO ATTEND. No registration required.

Please join us at the Albany Public Library, May 6th at 2pm, for a special author/illustrator event for a brand new picture book. Eugenia Yoh is the co-creator of the new picture book This is Not My Home. After she reads her book there will be a brief discussion of the concept of identity, and an art activity. Pegasus Books will be the bookseller for this event.

About the book:

This is not my backyard barbecue.

This is not our car, these are not my fireflies.

This is not my farmer’s market and...

This is not my home.

When Lily’s mom announces their family must move back to Taiwan to take care of her elderly Ah Ma, Lily is devastated to leave behind her whole life for a place that is most definitely not her home. But Lily soon realizes, through the help of her family and friends, what home means to them. And perhaps someday—maybe not today, but someday—it might become her home too.

About the author/illustrator:

Eugenia Yoh and Vivienne Chang are students at Washington University in St. Louis. Eugenia studies Communication Design and spends her free time designing posters for clubs. Vivienne studies Economics and spends her free time creating events for clubs that need posters. They hope to continue telling stories that simplify seemingly universal ideas through humor. When they are not discussing their next book concept, they can be found at a lake, a library, or in the yogurt section of Whole Foods.
