AGM: By-Laws and Elections

TD Canadian Children’s Book Week will run from Sat. May 5th to Sat. May 12th, 2012. TLE is proud to have been chosen to host an event on May 10th featuring award-winning Canadian author Kathleen McDonnell! Join us at 2100 blvd des Laurentides 7:00 to 8:00 p.m. for an engaging evening with Kathleen!! In addition to five books of children's and young-adult fiction, Kathleen has written two acclaimed non-fiction books about children and popular culture, Kid Culture and Honey, We Lost The Kids.

She has extensive experience speaking to adult audiences, and for several years was a regular commentator on Kids and the Media for CBC-Radio. She writes in a variety of genres: theatre, fiction, non-fiction. For the past decade she has devoted much of her time to young audience novels and plays. Her lively visits generally start with a reading of 10-12 minutes, followed by questions and discussion of various topics, including: character’s experiences; how a book was researched; the challenges of crafting a story and characters from real-life subjects. Open to the public! For more information call Karen at: 450-688-2933 ext 3126
