Introducing From Home and Away: Book Recommendations For Young Readers (and the Young at Heart)

To mark Canadian Children’s Book Week, Algonquin College library and information technician (LIT) student Yuli Sato reached out to well-known Canadians in politics and government, the arts and journalism, and librarianship inviting them to share their favourite children’s books recommendations. She also asked foreign diplomats in Canada about their favourite childhood reads from their home country. Contributors share the books that have influenced them, and with so many responses, it was made clear that even as adults, we still have fond memories of our most beloved childhood reads. It was inspiring to learn about children’s books from all over the world!
