ENDORSEMENTS
"I first knew Chao from his comics on @doodlesinabox. I found his humour so intelligent, and to capture it all in one single frame is just pure talent. It was because of this that I had to reach out and ask if he would collaborate on a book! Good thing he said yes!"

"Don't let the puns and wacky comics fool you! Chao is a keen observer of current affairs and he has a knack for conveying important messages in one panel. After getting a chuckle out of them, his comics always get me thinking about the issues he is addressing."

"Cursed with the passion of creating comics, Chao's illustrations remind us that we can find joy in simple little things around us."
