Please read! While I support "Buy Canadian", it doesn't work for the book industry. It can hurt Canadian authors and local booksellers. Keep supporting your local indies and authors! Thank you! 🫶 🇨🇦 #kidlit vancouversun.com/business/bc-...

For B.C. booksellers facing tariffs, asking readers to 'Buy Canadian' may be little help

"The thing most people don't realize is that most of our books, including those by Canadian authors, are printed or warehoused in the U.S."

I've been collecting some resources and opportunities for young writers and illustrators to learn and receive feedback on their craft: bit.ly/3DPjEeW It's by no means exhaustive, and I'd love to grow it! Particularly looking for examples that are free/low-cost. LMK if you have any to add! #kidlit

Sharing my debute picture book ALIYA’S SECRET- A STORY OF RAMADAN 4 days before the start of Ramadan. This book is a great introduction to the holiday for those who celebrate and for those who want to learn about it.
