Reviews
""I know that teachers will undoubtedly be using The Possible Lives of WH, Sailor for teaching purposes, especially for history -- a list of discussion questions as part of an appended teachers' guide will be ever so useful -- but this picture book should be seen as an exemplar for empathy and compassion for times and people gone and unknown."" -- Helen Kubiw, CanLit for LittleCanadians [read the full review] ""This volume is extraordinary on several fronts. [...] The narrative is told in a varied poetic style with frequent use of rhyme, and it includes invaluable end material. [...] Highly recommended."" -- Val Ken Lem, CM: Canadian Review of Materials [read the full review] ""One of the most delicately respectful yet robust yet intimate texts Ive read in recent years. [] I do not see how any reader can go through this book without seeing the world in a richer, more nuanced, and more colourful way."" -- Deborah Furchtgott, The Children's Bookroom [read the full review]
