Aram Kim is an author-illustrator who has always been enchanted by adventure stories and clever tricksters. So naturally, she wanted to retell her all-time favorite Korean folktale about Tokki and Jara that is packed with irresistible elements - characters who are just a little bit sneaky, daring escapes, and adventures to the new world! Fun fact: while working on this book about a rabbit trying to keep his liver, Aram had her own gallbladder removed. She and Tokki now have a lot to talk about when it comes to internal organs! Aram's other books include Tomorrow Is New Year's Day: Seollal, a Korean Celebration of the Lunar New Year and Sunday Funday in Koreatown , both Junior Library Guild Selections; Let's Go to Taekwondo! and No Kimchi for Me! , both Junior Library Guild Selections and Bank Street College Best Children's Books of the Year; and many more. She was born in Ohio, raised in South Korea, and now lives in Queens, New York, happily surrounded by diverse food and culture. AramKim.com.
