About the author

Kong Jigao is a popular-science author about whom little public information is available; four of his works are currently included in the collection. Judging from representative titles such as A New World of the Universe, Let Me Show You the Earth, My First Popular Science Book, and Looking at Plants, his writing centers on science popularization, covering natural subjects including the universe, the Earth, and plants, while some works are also categorized under inspirational growth. His titles tend to be colloquial and reader-friendly, suggesting an aim to guide ordinary readers, especially young people, in observing nature and understanding the world, and to convey scientific knowledge in an accessible way. As his dates of birth and death, nationality, and personal background remain unclear, little more can be said about his life; based on the existing works, however, his direction is clear: to bridge popular science and growth reading, leading readers from the Earth and plants around them all the way to the vast universe.
