Canada A to Z.....It's finally out!

Through multiple cover, title and layout changes, the finished product of Canada A to Z is here!
Written by myself, my sister and my Grandmother, this book is a mix of Canadian history and poetry.
On each page there is one word for each letter of the alphabet; a word that we feel is relevant to Canada.  Then there will be either a poem or a quote, and a quick blurb about the word and how it influenced (or influences) Canada. They are available in softcover and I will be selling them at the Orangeville Farmer's market on August 20th.  We hope to get them in stores closer to Canada Day.  You can find my Grandmother at www.virginiamay.com

Canada A to Z

Hello again!
I am especially excited for Canada's 150th birthday in 2017, (not only for the 150th birthday which is exciting in itself) but because I, along with my Grandmother and sister, are writing a book, titled Canada A to Z - In Commemoration of the 150th Anniversary of Canada's Confederation.  This book consists of a collection of poems that the other authors and I wrote and quotes from historical figures.  We will try to get it published by 2017- In time for Canada's 150th birthday!  We are currently working on the poems, photographs and layout of the whole book, all of which are almost done!  I want to thank my Grandma who came up with this whole idea.  Hopefully it will be available soon!
