Brief description: Hi! My name's Hiroshi and I'm a kid, just like you. I'm fascinated with the internet, use my smartphone to create all types of content, and love spending time with friends and family across the globe. I started writing as a way to address issues of bullying and diversity that I and others around me have experienced. I am inspired by an appreciation of culture and diversity all around me. We are each different in some way. I am different. I think that differences are what make each of us unique, though, and things we should be proud of. Unfortunately, some kids make fun of others for such differences. My books are meant to help celebrate the wonderful ways in which every kid should be proud of who they are, where they come from, and the contribution they make to the world around them. I am lucky enough to have parents that celebrate the many ways that I am unique. My mom is Japanese, and my dad is Mexican-American, and they have struggled to ensure I am proud of all aspects of my culture. They continue to send me to Mexico and Japan to spend time with grandparents during summer breaks, even though my dad says it costs way too much to do so. The result is that they have created someone who is confident, proud, and capable of accomplishing anything I put my mind to.
Review Quotes:
"I loved the book. Even though it is a children's book written by a child, it is witty and funny and interesting to see how a 4th grader thinks. It sucks you in his world and you will find yourself wanting to know more. I also like how the characters are realistic yet fictional. All in all it is an amazing book and a must read."
