About the author
Dr. Christina Sandi Tjandra was born and raised in Java Island, Indonesia before she immigrated to Canada in 2006. She is a visual artist, educator, and scholar in language and literacies education. "The Jar that Holds the Universe" is her first MG novel born out of her sociolinguistic research where she listened to children speaking about language, identity, place, and belonging. Additionally, this novel is also born out of her obsessions with ETs, wormholes, hyperspace, and parallel universes.
