Book cover for Threshold: Stories by Carol Bruneau (Vagrant Press/Nimbus Publishing), with a vibrant painting of lupins and flowers lining an oceanside path. Nominated for the 2025 Thomas Raddall Atlantic Fiction Award. Contemporary short story collection exploring privilege, perspective, and contradiction from the celebrated author of Brighten the Corner Where You Are and A Bird on Every Tree. https://nimbus.ca/store/threshold.html Book cover for children's book The Sandcastle That Jack Built by Judith Graves‬, illustrated by Maurice Bernard (The Acorn Press) with a boy in a backwards baseball hat building a sandcastle by the ocean. At once familiar and fresh, The Sandcastle that Jack Built is a lyrical and playful version of the traditional nursery rhyme. In this updated classic, Judith Graves’s beautiful text is perfectly accompanied by rich, vivid illustrations from renowned Island artist and sandcastle sculptor, Maurice Bernard. https://www.acornpresscanada.com/store/the-sandcastle-that-jack-built
