Wu said her Doodle represents her gratitude for her sisters, whom she loves and sometimes dislikes, but canโt imagine her life without them. โWe help to inspire each other and to help each other grow like the vines and flowers in my picture,โ Wu said. โI am never lonely with them and they can cheer me up.โ
In the Doodle, Wu drew her sisters sitting next to her holding a cup of hot chocolate, which is one of her fondest memories. The rainbow in the background symbolizes one of the first things Wu helped one of her sisters draw, she said. The sisters are surrounded by flowers and vines, which Wu said represents โhow the sisters help each other grow like the vines and flowers in my picture.โ The stems and flowers create the word โGoogle.โ
Wu was selected as the winner by a panel of judges that included actor Noah Schnapp, author and illustrator Brian Selznick, 2022 National Teacher of the Year Kurt Russell and Googleโs Doodle Team Lead Jessica Yu. She was one of the five finalists from each of the five grade groups, who also received a $5,000 college scholarship, Google hardware and other prizes.
The other finalists were Alison Rhee from California with โJoshua Treeโ, Benjamin Cummins from Mississippi with โHoney Beesโ, Annalise Perez from Louisiana with โThe Quiet of My Roomโ, and Rose Grino from Guam with โFirst Last Yearโ.
