@ShelfieTalk Q3: I try to honour my students’ reading lives through choice, choice, and more choice - in how they read and what they read. #shelfietalk

@ShelfieTalk A8 Haymarket - a little something I read at UNB. I couldn’t stop thinking about it as I read.

@ShelfieTalk A5 The Good Fight helped me understand what 1933 looked like in Canada in a new way. The racism and poverty are palpable in the ways they intersect. #shelfietalk
