Ashima Shiraishi, 19, is one of the most talented rock climbers in the world. The message she hopes kids take away from her new book, 'How to Solve a Problem'? 'To stand up after each time that you fall down,' she says.
"I am Ashima. What I do is climb. What I do is solve problems, which is to say, I make them mine."Ashima Shiraishi, 19, is one of the most talented rock climbers in the world. And she'd like to let you in on a rather unglamorous secret:"Most of climbing, it's you just falling," she says."Every time you go back at it, you improve slightly.
"I did have to research very, very heavily into rock climbing actions to make sure that the poses are accurate," Xiao says. The illustrations range from realistic to fantastical — as Ashima goes back and forth between climbing a real-life rock and an imaginative pile of shapes — an outcropping that looks like a train, a slab in the shape of a constellation, a toehold like the dot of a question mark.
"You get that feeling of being outside and climbing, but there are also pages of that visual puzzle of Ashima's imagination," Xiao adds.
