About the author

Zheng Kaijun is a Chinese author writing mainly for children. Public information about him is limited, and his nationality, dates of birth and death, and English name cannot be confirmed. The library holds eight of his works, all in the "Dad in My Pocket" series, including Magic Potion, Kung Fu Prodigy, The Dream Machine, The Amazing Crow's Mouth, The Weather Controller, I Can Do Seventy-Two Transformations, My Family Has a Money Tree, and The Universal Printer; the books are commonly classified under parenting. Judging from these works, he is skilled at using everyday family settings and father-child interactions as narrative threads, advancing stories with exaggerated imagination and light humor, and weaving magic, technology, and growing-up themes into short, accessible children's books suited to parent-child reading, which is why they are often shelved as parenting titles.
