Happy #IReadCanadianDay! It’s a great time to share stories by Canadian authors and illustrators with the wee ones around us. We’re all better for it!

‘Sometimes you encounter a book and cannot work out how this miraculous event has happened’ We're delighted to announce that the winner of the #BookerPrize2024 is Orbital by Samantha Harvey. 🌌✨ Discover the book: thebookerprizes.com/the-booker-lib…

Don’t miss this engaging and sometimes shocking new book. We recommend picking up a copy at your local independent bookstore—perhaps The Bookshelf in Guelph, ON, which also operates an independent cinema!

A good recommendation for when we're asked why we aren't showing certain movies.
