Hope Dalvay has a (not-so-secret) secret: she’s a daydreamer. To her relief, she’s turned her daydreaming habit into a passion for writing. Her works include the middle-grade children’s novels Welcome to Camp Fill-in-the-Blank (2019), My Year as a SPACE Cadet (2021), and Butter Tart Island (2024), as well as the educational picture book The Multiplication Rap (2023), all published by The Acorn Press. A huge fan of Anne of Green Gables, Hope is beyond excited that her short story, “In Search of Kindred Spirits,” is included in The ANNEthology: A Collection of Kindred Spirits Inspired by the Canadian Icon (2024).

My newest book, THE MULTIPLICATION RAP, is a bit of a departure for me. It’s an educational picture book featuring catchy rhymes to help kids learn the times tables. My other books, WELCOME TO CAMP FILL-IN-THE-BLANK and MY YEAR AS A SPACE CADET, are middle-grade fiction novels written with humour and heart that are intended to purely entertain.

So, why would I even want to write an educational pict Read more of this blog post »
