I can't even count the number of books coming out from Canadian authors and illustrators this summer and fall. There are hundreds. Yes, hundreds. It would be impossible for me to review even ten percent of titles released. (This is an apology for all those authors, illustrators, publicists, marketing directors, and publishers who generously share books with me. I try my best to review the books sent to me, especially when I've wanted to check out those titles, but I can't even get to those. I do my best.)
So what do we have coming out this summer and fall? Everything. Humour and sweet. Scary and romantic. Mysterious and thrilling. Sports stories, war stories, and historical fiction. There are graphic novels, early readers, YA, non-fiction, picture books, and short story anthologies. I'm pleased to share these titles with readers of CanLit for LittleCanadians so that they might find their next best read of youngCanLit. And I'm delighted to make everyone aware of new authors and favourite ones who have books coming out.
