It was a moving experience to speak with kids from Ukraine about my book, which is deeply personal to them. Thank you, Halyna Kostiuk, for all that you do for your students.
Josyf Cardinal Slipyj has a very active writing club and I got to meet them! Here they are.

Just yesterday, Yale released their findings about Russia’s extensive kidnapping of Ukrainian kids. My novel, Kidnapped from Ukraine: Under Attack is about that crime. It will be published in January.
Thrilled with this review of Under Attack!
They say: “this important and tough to read novel … fictionalizes, in harsh detail, true events from a child’s point of view.”


Love having the opportunity to speak the backmatter and acknowledgements for the audio editions of my books. Today, I did that for Kidnapped from Ukraine: Under Attack, Scholastic. Thank you, Will Crann at Catherine North Studios in Hamilton! I have deep respect for professional narrators who do this all the time.
This novel will be published on Jan 7, 2025, so imagine my surprise to see it pop up as a #1 release on Amazon.com. Yay!
