Each year the Canadian Children’s Book Centre (CCBC) gives each Grade 1 student in Canada a Canadian children’s book with the sponsorship of TD Bank Group. This year Small Saul, written and illustrated by local author Ashley Spires, was chosen. Ashley grew up in Tsawwassen and currently resides in Ladner.
Ashley Spires, author of Small Saul, The Most Magnificent Thing and the Binky Adventure series stopped by Delta Manor Education Centre to meet with Grade 1 teachers, who received copies of Small Saul for each of their grade one students.
