OCULUM Livestream Q & A

OCULUM had a great outing at the Peel District School Board Virtual Forest of Reading Celebration on June 2/2020!

Thanks to PDSB organizers for creating a week-long, online Forest of Reading celebration for 9 authors to answer questions from Peel students.

Here's the whole Q & A from June 2/2020, I start at 43 minutes:

Helaine Becker and Zetta Elliott are also featured, with wonderful answers to kids' questions. Really thoughtful and fun.

I answered 25 questions in 30 minutes, including gems like "What inspired you to write OCULUM?"; "Why are there so many peaches in the story?"; "What's your favourite part of the story?" and many more!

Also, kids learned little-known facts about me, like I lived on a glacier, I play guitar, and my favourite candy is a red twizzler.

Enjoy!
