Emilee Sung, 10, Artist

At 4’8”, Emilee’s dream is to one day be tall. Specifically, taller than her six-years-older-than-her sister, whom Emilee spends a lot of time fleeing from after invoking her wrath when she is bored. Emilee is an artist, turning her apples into edible McDonald’s French fry sculptures and origami paper into moving stars. Emilee loves singing at the top of her lungs, collecting seashells, and microwaving sugar to make lollipops. She hasn’t burned down the house yet, which her family agrees is a miracle. The carpet is only lightly torched from when she tried to make a treasure map.
