Canadian Authors

[close] The White Pine Club of St. Robert CHS.

[close] A bi-monthly #CanLit book club, hosted on YouTube.

[close] Welcome! Every month, you can expect four new prompts to help you decide what to read. There are two general prompts, and two CanLit prompts (for Canadian authors), because a huge part of this is to highlight the great Canadian talent we have! I will set up a separate discussion place below per prompt so we can talk about what we've read, etc!

[close] Inspired by the passionate debates on CBC's Canada Reads, this group is for the sixteen and seventeen year olds out there to voice their selection for the essential Canadian novel, play or graphic novel to be read by Canadians, as well as visitors and immigrants to Canada.
