Tae Keller writes middle-grade fiction about Korean American families, friendship, grief and the ways stories help children understand difficult changes. When You Trap a Tiger follows Lily after she moves in with her family to help her sick grandmother and encounters a magical tiger connected to the Korean stories Halmoni has told her. The novel blends family realism with folklore as Lily tries to bargain with the tiger and uncover what her grandmother has kept hidden. Jennifer Chan Is Not Alone turns a school friendship and a missing classmate into a story about bullying, belonging and belief in extraterrestrial life, while Mihi Ever After moves more fully into portal fantasy. Keller's writing is warm, accessible and child-centred, with humour alongside serious family concerns. Her books fit middle-grade family fiction, Korean folklore fantasy and school stories.
