I couldn't be more excited to reveal the cover for my next book: FIREFLY, a middle-grade story about PTSD. But mostly, it's about family and friendship.
It's pretty funny, too, and based on a real costume warehouse in Toronto's east end, which belongs to a family member.
Coming from DCB Young Readers in February, 2021, it's a story that has always been close to my heart, and I'm so happy it's almost here. Thank you to my publishing family at DCB/Cormorant, and cover illustrator Julie McLaughlin, for lending her amazing talent.
To pre-order or for more information: FIREFLY
For now, here is the back cover copy:
"Motorcycle cop? Medieval warrior? Maybe a singing lobster?
If you lived in a shop with seven million costumes,
what would you choose …
Firefly lives with her Aunt Gayle at The Corseted Lady
costume shop, which is much better than living in the park where she used to
live. But there’s a lot to get used to: food, a bed (if she can bring herself
to sleep in it), a cat, a new school. She even has to get used to Aunt Gayle.
But when you can wear anything, become anything, how do you
decide who you are?
And which costume is the real one?"
