To my great relief, Prisoner of Dieppe, a novel I’ve written for Scholastic’s new I Am Canada Series has been receiving excellent reviews. Quill and Quire gave it a starred review and said that it “makes history come alive through an expert mix of fact and fiction.” CM Magazine gave it 3 1/2 stars out of 4 and said that “its lively writing style will maintain reader interest throughout.”  And Susan Perren in the Globe and Mail on Nov. 6 said it was “very good indeed” and “utterly engrossing.”  Whew!

Scholastic Canada has prepared some excellent videos on Prisoner of Dieppe and the I Am Canada series that can be seen on their website.
