Did you know drama characterizes the year of the dragon. The performing arts, fashion, all things creative and cultural events come under favourable auspices. Magnificent and outlandish projects, the more bizarre and unexpected the better, are the order of the year. So my creative friends get out those pencils, pens, brushes and paper. Find scissors thread and needle. Lift the lid of the piano or tighten the strings... OFF WE GO !!!

It's June 1, officially Pride Month, and here at the The Canadian Children's Book Centre, we plan to celebrate in style! Mark your calendars: Coming June 20, the Glitterature Takeover with Paul Coccia! Not only will Paul be hosting our Instagram takeover on that day, but we have many more fun treats and surprise guests who will be making an appearance over the month—to talk about Pride, what it means to them, and how much representation matters in children's books in the current climate and world we live in. Stay tuned for more fabulous content and make sure you're following us on Instagram - !

It sounds like Jennifer Maruno was a big reader even as a child.

DYK? Jennifer and her brother had so many comic books they kept them in a wagon and rolled about the neighbourhood reading in blanket-over-the-clothesline tents.
