Thanh Tâm, Phương Vũ, Hoài Anh

Three friends who burst out with a big, joyful “Aha!!!” the very first time their paths crossed. From that spark, they’ve adventured hand in hand through the dazzling world of children’s books, uncovering wonders at every turn... and, most importantly, the boundless joy of friendship!

Cam Anh Ng

Cam Anh Ng is a Vietnamese illustrator and visual storyteller. Her works encompass various themes, but two consistently inspire her: the human connection to nature, and the heritages that link people to their communities. Her creative inspiration stems from childhood memories, especially her mother’s perse stamps brought home from work. These vibrant tiny pictures, each telling a story, were her first encounter with visual storytelling.

Ngô Hà Thu

Ngô Hà Thu has been a literary translator since 2012. She has brought rabbits, whales, and Seussian rhymes into Vietnamese - by way of Beatrix Potter, Benji Davies, and Dr. Seuss. She also teaches, writes, and talks about the joys (and occasional headaches) of bringing stories across languages.
