In our inaugural digital issue, long-time CCBC supporter Amy Mathers reflects on her meaningful connection with the Canadian Children’s Book News and shares how it has enriched her life.
This issue also explores book challenges and censorship, and the impact this has on publishers, creators and educators. In her compelling article, author Heather Camlot interviews five prominent writers—Christine Baldacchino, Danny Ramadan, David A. Robertson, Cory Silverberg and Robin Stevenson—whose books have been challenged or censored in schools and libraries. Jessica Rose delves into the often-overlooked practice of shadow banning, and educator and book expert Spencer Miller explores the growing issue of book challenges in Canadian schools.
Our Keep Your Eye On features Tasha Hilderman, author of Métis Like Me and the upcoming Lights at Night. Our Bookmark section highlights books that have been challenged in the past and which should be shared with or read by students and be celebrated for their power to start conversations that matter
