Respect Our World: Sustainability

My children’s educational book Respect Our World: Sustainability was published by Beech Street Books.

It is one book in a series called “To Be Canadian,” and is written for children between kindergarten and grade 3. It touches on the ways that Canadians create sustainable living for wildlife, sustainable methods to ensure clean air and water, and a sustainable future in light of climate change. It includes recommended further reading and websites, as well as a glossary of key vocabulary.

You can order the book from Amazon, or McNally Robinson .

Chinese Immigrants in Canada

Immigration to Canada – Then and Now is a series of educational books published by Beech Street books. My book is entitled Chinese Immigrants in Canada and intended for students in grades 5 and 6.

What an educational experience it was for me to learn about this strong, determined, resourceful, industrious ethnic group in Canada. I have enormous respect for the Chinese immigrants and Canadian-born Chinese people who battled hardships with dignity.

Famous Black Canadians

My favorite so far! This is the first biographical work I’ve done, and I so enjoyed discovering so many unsung heroes!  It was nearly impossible to choose which to include in the book, but I am so happy with how the book turned out. I especially love the many full-sized photos.

My children’s educational book, Adventure Math Stories, is a 50-page interactive book designed for children in grades 4 to 6. It is four separate fiction stories with a math problem at the bottom of each page. The solution to the math problem gives you the next page in the story. It includes an answer sheet.

My intention for this book was that reluctant or struggling math students would enjoy reading to the cliffhanger at the bottom of each page, and be inspired to practice their math skills in order to finish the story. Or, reluctant readers who enjoy math would be willing to slog through the stories for the sake of doing the fun math clues!

Adventure Math Stories can be ordered by contacting me. Just fill out your contact information below and leave the message, “I’m interested in ordering Adventure Math Stories!”. Thanks!
