The Last Last by @wendyjwhittingham.bsky.social and Brianna McCarthy turns the bittersweet of leaving one home to the sweetness of greeting another. I especially loved how the birds, although different in each location, provide connection. #kidlit #canadiankidlit 📚👍🏻

The Love Song of Mr. Byrd by @phdowding.bsky.social with illustrations by Caroline Clarke is a balm for the soul. A reassuring story of friendship: poignant, lyrical, wise in an empthetic perspective for young readers. I loved this book. Much needed in our current world. #kidlit #canadiankidlit 📚👍🏻

This is a very personal essay on my journey through childhood trauma & #mentalillness to a place of peace and faith. I talk about Darwin the donkey & my struggles with trusting God.

How an Animal Helped Heal My PTSD
By the time the submerged memory of the abuse surfaced, my life was in flaming ruins – but I was learning to heal myself, by the grace of the Creator.

Going at my own pace these days. 💜
Not rushing the process--that doesn't work for me, anyway. Lol!
Creating, healing, writing—on my timeline.
We’re all on our own path. That’s the point! 💫

As days shorten & grow colder I'm reminded of how fortunate I am to have a safe home. I don't often shout out my own books but #teachers #librarians & #parents have told me #LilyAndThePaperMan is a good conversation starter about about those experiencing #homelessness. #kidlit #canadiankidlit #pb

I haven’t written anything recently, thanks mostly to the persistent rejections of publishers, but this is my first YA novel released in 2013. I have 2 others since.
I hope this qualifies me for this list. #Canadiankidlit #yalit #canadianlit
