"Hope is the thing with feathers that perches in the soul." Those wise words from Emily Dickinson gave strength to author Edna M. Wilkinson the day she first looked into the eyes of her tenth child, a boy named Todd, who was born with Down's Syndrome. For years, the writer jotted down her secret feelings, hopes, and fears, bringing them all together in this short novel that will transport you into the daily life of a young mother and her mentally handicapped child. Most important of all, "A Different Drummer" will remind parents raising a Down's Syndrome child that they are not alone. $14.00 CDN plus 5% GST = $14.70 plus shipping and handling  Read an excerpt from "A Different Drummer"

LATE HARVEST  One of author Edna Wilkinson's first published works, "Late Harvest" is a compilation of poems and stories that takes the reader on a nostalgic journey back to a simpler time, when one-room school houses and coal oil lamps were part of daily life. Based on her own experiences growing up on a depression-era farm in Eastern Ontario, the author also includes memories of later years raising her family on the same land on which she was raised -though as the years pressed on, so too did her world change.  $4.99 CDN plus 5% GST = $5.24 plus shipping and handling
