Young Vo is an animator, illustrator, and author. His children's book Gibberish is an insightful and moving story about a young boy named Dat who moves to the United States and really struggles, because everything around him sounds like gibberish.
In this episode, we talked about Young's experience as a children's book author, how he landed his first book deal with Arthur Levine (the U.S. editor of the Harry Potter series), the importance of being teachable and seeking out feedback, and much more.
