Y. Y. Chan

Y.Y. Chan was born in Hong Kong but grew up in sunny Brisbane, Australia where she had Christmas during summer. She returned to Hong Kong to teach English after graduating from university with First Class Honours. She also has an M.A. in English Language Teaching, and has been teaching English for over ten years.
When her father passed away, she took a break from teaching to travel, read, and write. She now tutors English and works freelance for different educational institutes.
‘Can You Hear Me, Daddy?’ is her debut picture book, and winner of the Royal Dragonfly Book Award (2020).

When she is not writing or teaching, she is either reading or looking for more books to add to her overflowing bookshelf.
