Where is My Reflection?

written and illustrated by Ziyi Xu

A little girl stands in front of a mirror, unable to see her reflection — even though all her friends see theirs. So she embarks on a journey to find her reflection. She asks everything she meets if they are her reflection, only to be told no. After a series of negative answers and disappointment, she finally paints a reflection of herself with a brush. The story aims to teach children the truth that only you can define yourself.

Ziyi Xu loves to think, Ziyi loves to draw, Ziyi loves giraffes!

Ziyi is an illustrator based in London who loves to observe life. Through her drawings and stories she conveys her love for life, her interest in society and culture as well as her thoughts on self-reflection.

She hopes that readers will be able to empathize with her and connect with themselves through her stories.
