Darcie has let us know that she would be glad to sign your copy of the book, so be sure to bring it with you. We will have copies available for purchase at the event, or you can order in advance from Darcie's publisher, DC Canada Education Publishing.
Did we mention that Darcie is on our library board? We just couldn't be happier for her!
Please let us know if you plan to attend so that we can make sure we have enough cake for all!
About My Mom is NOT a Superhero:
A little girl whose mother has Multiple Sclerosis discovers that some superheroes are fighting invisible battles. With the help of her cat and some X-ray glasses, she learns just how strong her mom is and how she can help her.
Darcie Naslund has been fighting a rollercoaster of a battle for many years. Finally, she decided to write this story to explain her invisible owies to her children. She fights for herself, but also for her family. This touching picture book explores the love of a mother and daughter who, together, can do (almost) anything.
