cake book and an amazing teacher-librarian

The day before I was bestowed with the Order of Princess Olha, I did a school visit to Sarnia Collegiate Institute and Technical School. Jan Turnbull, the teacher-librarian, was amazing! She had adorned the library walls with images of my books and had printed off a bio of me for each participant of her coffee and book club.

The students were wonderful too. They asked excellent questions and seemed really to enjoy having an author visit.

Jan had lunch brought in for the entire book club and me too. And she brought in this amazing cake! Check it out:
