In 1996, he received a Gold Medal from the Society of Illustrators, an award judged by fellow illustrators. Soentpiet's artistic realism earned him the distinction from the Children's Book Council as one of seventy-five author and illustrators everyone should know. A Korean-born adoptee, his multicultural background and experiences are reflected in his choice of distinct cultural and historical settings for his books. His multi-cultural books are used in schools to help educators integrate social studies to their classroom lessons. Visit his website at www.soentpiet.com.
