Did you know that today is National Spoil Your Dog Day? We just thought that was everyday. We say celebrate with a book! From the bestselling and award-winning author of CARSON CROSSES CANADA (also featuring a dog!), Linda Bailey’s CINDERELLA-WITH DOGS, is a hilarious picture book featuring a dog-loving kingdom and the most fabulous, far-out fairy DOGmother ever!

“Although the jaunty text ruff-ly follows the traditional tale, in the end, Cinderella exhibits independence with a prince she likes but doesn’t know well enough to marry. Cheery, cartoonish illustrations lend to the cleverness in this feminist, fractured fairy tale.” —Booklist

We’re so thrilled for the very deserving Leanne Toshiko Simpson!

“A refreshing debut that tackles bipolar disorder with both humour and emotional honesty. Drawing from her own experience, Toshiko Simpson offers insight into what it’s like to live with mental illness—and to love and support someone who does. It’s a story that will likely offer comfort and recognition to some readers, and perspective and empathy to others, all while playing with romantic comedy expectations in a smart and unexpected way.” — Chantel Guertin, Novelist and this year's Romance judge
