SAS Pudong was very fortunate today (April 15th) to have the honor of hosting Ying Chang Compestine, the author of “Secrets of the Terra-Cotta Soldier” – (co-authored with her son Vinson Compestine), “Revolution is not a Dinner Party”, “Banquet for Hungry Ghosts” and many more children’s picture books as well as adult cook books. Ying Chang shared her story about growing up in China in the 1970’s with a number of our elementary classes as well as our 6th Grade level. She outlined her history, her writing process, her adventures around the world, and her work in TV with cooking. She detailed with many images her work with her son, Vinson, and their visit to China as they worked develop their book. In her honor, the 6th Grade band lead by Lou Davies, played “Beijing Warriors”. The library will post more of today’s events and pictures soon, but for now… Thank you Ying Chang for Coming to SAS Pudong! and we hope that we can host you again soon!
