Andrea Spalding
Magical Journey
Andrea Spalding will describe how an imaginative child, hampered by dyslexia, becomes an award-winning writer. She lives on a small British Columbian island surrounded by ancient trees and the ever-changing ocean – a far cry from her working class roots in Manchester, England. Her picture book, Me and Mr. Mah, was chosen for the Dalai Lama’s booklist to promote tolerance and understanding. Her fantasy books, The Summer of Magic Quartets, are Canadian bestsellers.
