Banner Day for The Strange Gift of Gwendolyn Golden

Available January 25, 2014

Wow, my forthcoming middle grade novel, 
The Strange Gift of Gwendolyn Golden, had an extraordinary day yesterday.

First, it received an amazing review from ebooknews.ca. They called it "A gold standard teen-cusp read" and "a must-add to home and public libraries." Wow. So honoured! Here's the link: http://ebooknews.ca/home/

Then, as if that wasn't enough, Middle Shelf magazine (which is free btw, and if you're into middle grade books, you can subscribe at the link below) published their new Jan/Feb. issue, and featured an excerpt from the book on their "6 cool books for cool kids" ... another wow! Check out page 23:

PLUS, Helen Kubiw at CanlitforlittleCanadians.ca added the book to her key books to look for in 2014:  http://canlitforlittlecanadians.blogs... 

Three wows. Thanks ebooknews.ca, Middle Shelf magazine and Canlit for Little Canadians, I'm really delighted and so honoured! A banner day for sure. The book is coming out in a few weeks, soon you can actually lay your hands on a copy. That will make me happy!
