Flashback Friday! Original book launch of The Lake in the Middle of Town, December, 2004.

l. to r. Salazar (illustrator), Heather Nickel (publisher), Neil Sawatzky (author).

This book about Wascana Lake was first published at the time of the “Big Dig” and on the eve of Saskatchewan’s centennial celebrations. It was very well-received in schools and libraries and was shortlisted at the 2005 Saskatchewan Book Awards in the Children’s Literature Category.

Copies of the first edition sold out and the book has been out-of-print until the release of a new 20th anniversary, hardcover edition which has been updated and intended to reach a new generation of young readers, newcomers and those interested in the history and attractions of our capital city.

Available at a bookstore (McNally Robinson Booksellers - Saskatoon or Indigo Regina) or gift shop (Handmade Saskatchewan) near you or order online at www.ynwp.ca

Many thanks to Creative Saskatchewan for their generous support of this project!

This engaging, action-packed tale tells the (based-on-a-true) story of a cat lost for two years in a prairie city and the challenges he faces. Where's Johnny? explores themes of loneliness and survival (and triumph!) against the odds, as well as what it means to belong.
