Atomic Books

When we were making our Korean version of our logo sticker a few weeks ago, I asked my parents to check the Korean to make sure it was right. I think it was the first time they read our tagline and decided it wasn't zippy enough in Korean. So mom came up with this one. My mom is 81 years old! @eyeballfortress came up with the shirt design! We're taking pre-orders just in time for the end of AANHPI month! Shirts should be here mid to late June! #atomicbooks #aanhpimonth
