About Chiu, Cheng-Tsung
Chiu was a trouble maker in the mind of adults since he was a little boy. He was always full of fantasies and has found scribbling his only emotional exit. Though he went through quite a lot of setbacks, he made up his mind to devote his whole life depicting life and nature after forty years old.
He loves insects with all his heart and loves to seek for the mystery of the ecology of all kinds of insects. He wishes that he could draw the insects, photograph the insects, and immerse himself in the investigation of the ecology of the insects as his mind and imagination lead him.
His works has won numerous awards, including the best children's/young people's book in the science category of the Tripod Award. He was also twice nominated in the Bologna Children's Bookfair-Illustrator exhibition in the nonfiction category.
