It’s always a joy to meet future readers and writers, share writing tips and talk about stories. Come and stop by. An autographed book makes an easy-to-wrap Christmas present. @cormorantbooks.bsky.social

In the bunny-eat-bunny world of Canadian Children’s publishing, I’m happy to share Beachway Art success with Jennifer Mook-Sang. My art is right next to hers. The friendships last longer than the prize money!

You can read it in English!! Bring your young readers to meet me @cormorantbooks.bsky.social booth Word on the Street at 11:45. Stock some for your library or classrooms. A strong character navigating food allergies—something different to help with empathy.
