Young author presents book on robotics competitions November 24, 2026
Sunday, November 15, 2026
Andrew Sun-Zhuang, has recently published a book on Amazon titled VEX IQ Robotics Competition: The Ultimate Guide, hoping to share his knowledge and passion for robotics with younger students.
This is the first comprehensive VEX IQ Robotics book published in the U.S. It can serve as a helpful resource for students just beginning their robotics journey, as well as those looking to improve their skills and prepare for competitions.
Andrew began competing in VEX IQ robotics several years ago and qualified for the VEX Robotics World Championship three consecutive years, earning multiple awards, including the Think Award and a top-ten finish in World Skills. His robotics journey eventually led him to FIRST Tech Challenge (FTC), where his team also competed at the World Championship.
Beyond competitions, Andrew has been passionate about giving back to his community. He founded an after-school robotics club at The Evergreen School, where he volunteers as a coach, teaching younger students how to design, build, and program robots. Through this experience, he realized that many young robotics enthusiasts could benefit from a practical guide written from an alumnus's perspective.
Inspired by this idea, Andrew wrote and published his own robotics book, drawing on his competition experiences, lessons learned, and practical engineering knowledge. His goal is not simply to share competition strategies, but to encourage more children to explore STEM, develop problem-solving skills, and discover the excitement of engineering.
