Eyes That Kiss in the Corners

  • ... that the picture book Eyes That Kiss in the Corners was written to celebrate the beauty of Asian eyes and the power that those of Asian heritage have to create change in the world? Source: Determined to refute a childhood of media consumption that solely validated “impossibly narrow” Western beauty standards, debut author Joanna Ho told PW she set out to write a picture book that “celebrated not only the physical beauty of Asian eyes, but also the power we have to create change in the world.” - Publishers Weekly

  • Article was nominated within the first seven days of creation. QPQ completed. Prose is over 1,500 characters and written neutrally. Text is cited properly with inline citations. Earwig reported a 44.1% likelihood of copyright violation, but it mostly caught direct quotes that were cited in the article. It's fine but I would highly recommend rewording some of them. Hook seems a bit wordy; I suggest focusing on one aspect or the other. Lead needs a bit of copy-editing but is not relevant to the nomination in itself. (i.e. "Eyes That Kiss in the Corners is a January 5, 2021, picture book published by HarperCollins." might be better reworded as "Eyes That Kiss in the Corners is a 2021 picture book by Joanna Ho, published by HarperCollins on January 5, 2021 as her debut work.")lullabying (talk) 05:52, 10 March 2022 (UTC)
Lullabying I changed the lead to your suggestion and reworded some quotes down to "35.5%" and "Violation unlikely". I propose ALT1 ... that the picture book Eyes That Kiss in the Corners was written to celebrate the beauty of Asian eyes? SL93 (talk) 00:16, 11 March 2022 (UTC)
@SL93: Great. Maybe for the ALT1 something like "... that the picture book Eyes That Kiss in the Corners was written to celebrate and empower Asian identities?" lullabying (talk) 09:51, 11 March 2022 (UTC)
That works. Thanks for the review. I placed a tag for someone to review your hook. SL93 (talk) 13:02, 11 March 2022 (UTC)
approve ALT1 as cited and interesting! theleekycauldron (talk • contribs) (she/they) 22:06, 22 March 2022 (UTC)
