Picturebooks Mechanimals Frosty is a Stupid Name Sarah May and the New Red Dress Secret of the Dance Alphabetter Jeffrey and Sloth A Sack Full of Feathers

The Secret of the Dance is "an innocent perspective on a powerful act of defiance. Gait's large-scale acrylic paintings reinforce the religious dimension, infusing magic realism into the landscape and story." - Horn Book

Mrs. Goodhearth and the Gargoyle is "a lovely bedtime story, lyrical and cosy, and like nothing you've read before." - Edmonton Journal

Grandpa's Clock "gives hope and illuminates the value of intergenerational relationships…[a] well-crafted story [that] would strengthen any collection." - School Library Journal

A Sack Full of Feathers is "...a wonderfully illustrated book...the art warmly underlines the plot...refreshing...." - Jewish Book World

Alphabetter is "…delivered with an infectious exuberance and cadence theat manifests itself not just in the playful text, but also in illustrator Ross's quirky, kinetic characters." - The Globe and Mail
