Hua Yi Wei is an 11 years old girl who has had a passion for writing and drawing cats since she was a baby. As a cat lover, Huayi’s love for her cat Viva inspired her to write The Power of CATS. She wrote this book when she was 9 years old, and she did more than 60 drawings of cats in collaboration with her father, Hai Wei, an illustration artist. As a middle school student now, she never stops creating stories and paintings. This is her first book ever published, but it will not be the last.
