Abigail had a dark cloud.
It felt a bit familiar.
Her dad held her hand,
and then she knew.
Sometimes, he had
cloudy days too.
My fave text from DARK CLOUD for Child and Youth Mental Health Day. I love this moment of understanding beautifully illustrated by @PennyNevilleLee.

A few thoughts on whatās going on with Durham District School Board & The Great Bear. First of all, you can call it whatever you want. āUnder review,ā if it makes you feel better. When you pull a book from libraries, ask teachers to refrain from teaching it, itās banning. /1

The Durham District School Board has pulled The Great Bear from its libraries, and Iām shocked.
We need to be putting more books by Indigenous authors on the shelves, not taking them out.
This is an insult to teachers, librarians, and children. thestar.com/news/gta/2022/04ā¦
