Caroline Pignat, two-time Governor General’s Award–winning author of Shooter
“Raw, real, and riveting. In Heart Sister, Stewart masterfully takes us on Emmitt’s poignant search for what might be found when all seems lost. Heartfelt and heart-wrenching, it is a powerful story of hope.”
CM: Canadian Review of Materials
“The characters are refreshingly unique as is the storyline. Stewart takes an honest look at the paralysis of grief, the profound suffering of losing a loved one and the courage required to move on in the face of tragedy.”
Quill & Quire
“A tale that is alternately heartbreaking and mischievous, sometimes creepy, and ultimately triumphant.”

Kirkus Reviews
“A touching, heartfelt story with a healthy measure of hope.”
Canadian Children's Book News
