Oh my! I am twice as happy today! I just learned that two (yes, TWO!) of my books made the long-list for the OLA 2015 Forest of Reading!

« Une Charlotte olympique » is finalist for the Prix Peuplier (French picture book category) and my middle grade chapter book « Embrouilles à Embrun » is finalist for the Prix Tamarac Express (French pre-teen category). What an honour! Just knowing that hundreds of French and French immersion kids will get to read my books, and perhaps even vote for them (a girl can dream!) is filling me with such joy that I can hardly contain myself!
Thank you to the selection committee! And thank you to OLA for taking on such a hugely exciting program!
