Wow, my forthcoming middle grade novel, The Strange Gift of Gwendolyn Golden, has had an extraordinary day.

First, it received an amazing review from ebooknews.ca. They called it "A gold standard teen-cusp read" and "a must-add to home and public libraries." Wow. So honoured! Here's the link: http://ebooknews.ca/home/

Then, as if that wasn't enough, Middle Shelf magazine (which is free btw, and if you're into middle grade books, you can subscribe at the link below) published their new Jan/Feb. issue, and featured an excerpt from the book on their "6 cool books for cool kids" ... another wow!

Three wows. Thanks ebooknews.ca, Middle Shelf magazine and Canlit for little Canadians, I'm really delighted! A banner day for sure.
