Adeline Lee Zhia Ern

Adeline Lee Zhia Ern is a Malaysian and was born in 1991.

Her first book 'Lethal Lesson and other stories' was published in 2009 by Silverfish Books. However, it was found that one of her short stories “Define Happiness” in her book, was nearly word-for-word identical to the story "Happiness" by Sarah Provencal from the book ‘Chicken Soup for the Teenage Soul IV’ by Jack Canfield[1] published in 2004.[2] Subsequent to the discovery of plagiarism, the book has been withdrawn from publication and all copies have been destroyed.[3]
