pickIn 90's Edmonton, Molly MacGregor dreams of a life worthy of her adored Penguin Classics and of writing The Great Canadian/Edmontonian Novel. But summers selling shoes at West Edmonton Mall and semesters with pretentious English Lit profs don't seem to be cutting it. But this year, she just might find truth and beauty in the place she finds herself.
Charming, witty, and thoroughly delightful. I loved spending time with Molly. Highly recommend!
"Last night, I found myself perusing the shelves in our family library the way one might gaze reflectively into the refrigerator looking for that perfect bedtime snack."
"What's weirder," Eugenie asked, "that Maureen has so many shoe-store guys after her or that they're all named Gordon?"
"Being surrounded by Gordons does seem to be a distinctly Canadian occurrence."

It's possible I have too many books checked out from the library at the moment....
This book provides a great opportunity to discuss differing opinions. It can be used to work on opinion writing and debates in the classroom.
pickThis is a whimsical tale about a school that keeps adding extra days, leaving students longing for a break. With playful prose and delightful illustrations, it emphasizes the joys of learning while reminding readers the importance of balance. This charming story encourages young readers to appreciate both education and the joys of life outside the classroom.
