I was showing my new book, Country Baby (ages 0-4), to my stepdaughter and a stranger overheard us talking. He pulled out his phone and ordered it for his son. What a sweet thing to do. #orcabooks

I bought Anne of Green Gables for the beautiful cover art by Canadian artist, Elly MacKay, but of course, I couldn't resist rereading this classic. My favourite quote is when Anne says, "Next to trying and winning, the best thing is trying and failing."

Good news today that my board book, FOREST BABY by #Orca@orcabook is going to be reprinted. Yay! Thanks Shantala Robinson for your beautiful illustrations. And to my wonderful editor at Orca, Sarah Howden.
