Basil and I have really fallen for the series Heated Rivalry (you may have heard about it). But we approach the show from different POVs. You can hear our convos about it (NOT FOR KIDS) on Apple podcasts. Three episodes up here..... podcasts.apple.com/ca/podcast/w...

If you have recently caught the #Hockey bug, the Canadian Children's Book Centre has original art for the picture book GREAT up on their Picture Book Gallery. GREAT tells story of coach Walter #Gretzky, young Wayne and his friend Taylor. @penguinkids.bsky.social bookcentre.ca/collections/...

ARTISTS! It's a grim time so let's support each other! If you are open for private commissions post your work and your rates here! I want to boost you and get you some work! Anyone feel free to share this thread!

Another really nice review of Time Surfers! “This fast-paced, time-travelling novel will keep science fiction lovers intrigued and entertained” - @calgaryherald.com Out now from @harperkids.bsky.social @harpercollinsca.bsky.social calgaryherald.com/entertainmen...

This should be major news: literally dozens of book bans in Canada today, because of a ministerial order by Alberta's provincial government. The titles are being withheld by the school districts... I think Canadians have a right to know what books are being banned in our public schools.

Lovely review of Time Surfers in the #MontrealGazette!!! “…a fast-paced adventure that should appeal to anyone with a scientific, technical bent and an interest in time travel.” montrealgazette.com/entertainmen... @harperkids.bsky.social @harpercollinsca.bsky.social

Just arrived! The DANISH versions of the first two Hockey Super-Six books (available here in English from Scholastic Canada). Books three and four have also been picked up!!!! Thanks to Bogoo Books for the copies!
