A Stronger Home

Beschreibung

Home is in our hearts There is a storm inside the house. Fists rattle the walls, and yells crash like thunder. A boy and his mother know it's time to leave and find a stronger home. They travel from place to place, carrying home in their heartbeats. Together they are more powerful than any storm, and they will find the strongest home yet.

Katrina Chen (陳葦蓁) moved to Canada from Taiwan on her own and worked in the grassroots community before being elected as a Burnaby Board of Education trustee and later as the Member of the Legislative Assembly for Burnaby-Lougheed, becoming the first Taiwanese-born Canadian appointed to the BC Cabinet. She has openly shared her experiences as a survivor of gender-based violence. Katrina is currently president of 安信 Community Savings Credit Union and a certified coach, advocating for childcare, mental health and equity. Elaine Su (苏依泠) is a teacher, librarian and storyteller. She loves to create in the rich intersection where culture, nature, community and imagination meet. Born in Shanghai, she now lives in Vancouver, BC, with her family as settlers on the unceded territory of the hən̓q̓əmin̓əm̓-speaking peoples. Delphie Côté-Lacroix is an illustrator working from Montreal, Quebec. Over the years she has published many books alongside writers she admires. Her work has received multiple awards, including a prestigious Governor General's Literary Award for best illustrated book. She is known for illustrating texts addressing sensitive subjects or important social issues. She believes it is the artist's responsibility to contribute to the collective narrative and to do so with nuance and complexity. Her style can be recognized by her limited color palette, her use of soft textures and simple compositions.
