When I saw the school's proximity to the Castor River, and beautiful Stream of Dreams mural, I knew I was in for some great engagement, and they didn't disappoint!

Summer isn't over yet... which means there's still time to pick up and enjoy these great reads before school starts again! #kidlit #Cankidlit #summerreads

Kenzie cares for her little tree through the seasons, while at the same time experiencing the range of emotions that arise as her mother's pain -- resulting from a chronic illness -- comes and goes. A sensitive exploration of strength, family, and chronic illness from the perspective of a child.

Not only was I the lucky recipient of this @49thshelf.bsky.social giveaway, I got to meet @alisonmcgauley.bsky.social and Emilie Leduc in Ottawa at their book launch to have it signed this weekend! Thanks 49th Shelf, @orcabook.bsky.social and @thespanielstale.bsky.social :)
