TolCAF special guest Mika Song (Donut Feed the Squirrels, One Smart Cookie) presents a keynote presentation about her creative process and making comics.

Mika Song makes children's books about sweetly funny outsiders. A Friend for Henry by Jenn Bailey and illustrated by Mika received the Schneider Family Honor from the American Library Association. Her graphic novel for early readers Donut Feed the Squirrels was nominated for an Eisner Award.

She is Japanese American and Filipino. Besides making books and hanging out with her family she runs a regular comics club for young readers in her Queens, NY neighborhood. Her Norma and Belly comic strip appears weekly on SundayHaha.com, a free kids comics newsletter that she started with Jen de Oliviera in March 2020.
