Wow! What an incredible array of talent – and honestly, I’ve just scratched the surface with this list, and I’m sure there are plenty of amazing creators I’ve missed. So take list this to your local library and bring a bit of beautiful British Columbia into your reading life this summer!
Wow- such incredible talent- some of my all-time favourite authors and artists are on this list. ! I LOVE this idea for a post. Happy B.C. Day weekend to you!! 🙂
