"But author Philippa Dowding isn't telling us Firefly's story as dress-up play, as a little girl pretending to be someone else. Though the shop and its costumes are fascinating, colourful and rich in history and entertainment, as are the employees and customers, Firefly is about a child who has had to become an adult, who has endured trauma and negligence, and had to find ways to cope..."
--CanLit for Little Canadians, Feb 8/2021
The first review for my latest book FIREFLY is out, and it's a really thoughtful and beautiful one. Thank you to Helen Kubiw, from Canlit for Little Canadians, for the kind words for FIREFLY.
It's always a bit of a nail-biter for an author, that time before the first review comes out. This one is most appreciated!
