Interview with Kayleen Cho

What was the first book you remember reading alone?

The first book I ever chose to read was The Little Prince, which I read when I was nine years old. I was drawn to the cover—the image of a golden-haired boy standing alone in the desert left a strong impression on me. Strangely enough, stars, roses, and foxes, which felt somewhat distant from reality, never seemed unfamiliar to me.

At the time, I didn’t fully understand the story, but the line “What is essential is invisible to the eye” stayed with me for a long time. Perhaps that was when it all began—the habit of collecting stuffed animals one by one. Though they didn’t have names and never spoke, they were always there, silently staying by my side no matter how I was feeling. Like the fox in The Little Prince, the stuffed animals made me question the meaning of relationships.

What was the first book you remember picking up and reading by yourself?

I don’t remember the first book I read myself, but I do recall some books I loved as a kid. I enjoyed the Persian translation of The Adventures of Tintin and comic adaptations of Jules Verne’s stories, like Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Seas. I also remember Good Stories for Good Children by the Iranian writer Mehdi Azar Yazdi.

Interview with Bash Ortega

What was the first book you remember picking and reading by yourself?

There isn’t necessarily 1 book I remember in particular, but I have 2 brothers who are much older, so I inherited all of their Animorph and Goosebump books. I was obsessed with Goosebumps as a kid, and remember getting my dad to read them to me before I was old enough to read them myself. I also have a specific memory of watching Goosebumps: Night in Terror Tower on VHS while my dad made me alphabet soup for lunch.
