Info promotionnelle
Praise for A Porcupine in a Pine Tree:“The clearly Canadian lyrics are perfectly complemented by the fun and dynamic illustrations.” — CBC ParentsPraise for Dashing Through the Snow:“Parents and teachers will readily sing Becker’s rhymes, and the chorus – part of which ends with a resounding “eh!” – encourages full listener participation.” — National Reading Campaign“Much like the holiday season and any good celebration, the excitement and chaos build through every page turn in this picture book. Expect to be singing this book over and over again throughout the holiday season as Becker’s rhymes are infectious and possibly addictive. Zimmerman’s delightful and detailed watercolour illustrations complement the text perfectly with their wit and energy. There is so much to see in every illustration; don’t be surprised if you spot something new each time you read/sing through the story.” — CM: Canadian Review of Materials“Every bit as fun as its predecessor. This book has the potential of engaging the entire family since no one who reads it will be able to refrain from singing out loud.” — Montreal Gazette

Reviews

A Canadian Classic for kids

"I bought this book for my son about over ten years ago. He loved this book so much!. Every Christmas we'll bring it out and read it over and over during the holidays. I just bought another one to gift to a new mom and help her start her baby's library. I hope they enjoy it as much as we did."

Renata (5/5)

Great title and it helped that there was a reference to the traditional story in the name.

"Love the Canadian take on a traditional Christmas Story. I bought 3 copies to gift to little ones this Christmas. Even made my ""adult children"" listen to me read the story out loud."

Sharing a bit of Canadian culture.

"The book is one that was purchased for my grandchildren. This recent purchase was for a friend and her grandchildren in the US. Sharing some light hearted Canadian culture. The gift was well received."

Cute Canadian read!

"Very cute, Canadian, read for our niece! Our family are Maple Leafs fans so felt this was a nice way to get our niece on the bandwagon too."

AlexD (5/5)

Twelve Days of Christmas Canadiana

"Cute childrens book with a distinctly Canadian take on the twelve days of Christmas. It could do without the Toronto Maple Leafs reference but I’m assuming the author is unfortunately a fan."
