I Read Canadian Day

Today is I Read Canadian Day. I know because I saw it on Twitter this morning, and a Facebook friend posted about it. So, as so often happens, I am way behind the curve on this. But over the years I have paid a little attention to what's going on, childlit-wise, in Grandpa and Grandma Gauthier's home country. So here are some links from the Original Content archive on Canadian authors.

Tim Wynne-Jones 

I am not a big Anne of Green Gables fan, yet I have three posts on that book:

• Another Day
• The Land of Anne
• Loving Anne Shirley, Too, in which I also get to write about Margaret Atwood

It appears that except for Ben Philippe's book, The Field Guide to the North American Teenager, I've done little Canadian reading recently. What's that about?

Edited:

Gordon Korman is Canadian! Or started out that way.  And more Gordon Korman.
