The Love Song of Mr. Byrd is Canadian from start to finish ...

 

I'm so honoured and grateful to publish my next book, The Love Song of Mr. Byrd (Oct/2025), with DCB Young Readers, an independent, 100% Canadian publisher, and the children's imprint of Cormorant Books. From their website:

The first reviews of The Love Song of Mr. Byrd are still to come (nail-biting time, friends), but pre-orders and media copy or author interview requests are most welcome. More to come on Mr. Byrd, stay tuned! The book contains 10 beautiful b/w illustrations by Canadian artist Caroline Clarke.
