REVIEWS
FIREFLY: "The characters are deftly drawn, the setting is unique, and Firefly's story is moving and thought-provoking." Expert's Pick, Canadian Children's Book Centre, March 2022
"It's a powerful book with engaging characters ... a book with a lot of heart." CBC | The Next Chapter, 9 Great Holiday Reads
"This fantasy specialist’s shift into realism is a triumph (it won the Governor-General’s Award for young fiction)."
Globe & Mail, Top 100 Books of 2021
"... a natural segue to the mental health literacy component of the curriculum for senior elementary students." CCBC/July '21
"Firefly, like so much of Dowding's work, isn't limited to young readers. Her nuanced depiction of trauma, the search for identity & the desire to define what 'family' means will resonate with readers of all ages." OpenBook Review/Excerpt, May/21
