Read: Robin Leong's second picture book

Never let the opinions of others define one. Actor-turned-author Robin Leong hopes young readers will take away this message from his new picture book, The Kung Fu Force And The Perilous Boba Whirlpool.
His first book, The Kung Fu Force And The Tower of Doom, was released last year. Revolving around the three same animal characters, this sequel draws on his experience with childhood bullying.
"I was the smallest kid in my grade and I was always picked last when playing any games," Leong recounts.
"I would always hear comments about how small I was and that I should be counted as half a kid. Nobody knew what I could do."
Leong, who has two sons, adds: "Another important lesson from the book is that I want kids to forgive and forget. Don't hold grudges. Be bigger than others by showing your compassion."
The book retails for $14.90 (excluding GST) on the Epigram website, Epigram Bookshop at 267 Beach Road and major bookstores.
