The 2nd Canadian Book Challenge appeals to me because as an expat, I don’t make enough effort to keep up on Canadian books. I’m hoping this will force me to do a better job keeping up with my homeland. Since I’ll be travelling to Montreal and Ottawa in August, I’m planning to hold off on declaring my choices before that trip. I’m open to suggestions before that though! I’ll be checking out the Toronto Public Library’s 100 Best Canadian Children’s Books as well. My double-dipping title is from the Daring Girls Challenge: Behind Rebel Lines: The Incredible Story of Emma Edmonds, Civil War Spy by Seymour Reit. While most of the story takes place in the U.S., like me, Emma Edmonds hailed from New Brunswick before moving to the U.S. Counts for me!
