Coles A Summer of Dragonflies at Village Green Shopping Centre in Vernon, BC
*Product information may vary - to confirm product availability, pricing, shipping and return information please contact Coles
A family-oriented road trip book with a lot of heart and humor, in which a twelve-year-old girl sees her family’s big move across countries as a chance to reinvent herself from a terminally shy “zero” to a courageous “hero.”
Guppie initially tries to prove that she’s a hero through helping others and being bold, though she also comes to understand the true courage required to own up to one’s mistakes and make amends.
Guppie is a child of Guyanese immigrants. Her anxiety about moving to a new city and trying to make new friends is relatable to any immigrant kid — and any children going through major life changes.
Natasha Deen is an award-winning children’s author who has won Amy Mathers Teen Book Award and been nominated for the OLA Forest of Reading Red Maple Award, R. Ross Annett Award, Sunburst Award, Crime Writers of Canada Awards of Excellence, and Alberta Readers’ Choice Award.
Natasha Deen is a skilled storyteller and oral presenter. A Summer of Dragonflies is loosely inspired by stories she’d tell during school visits about her love of books, her family, her move from Guyana to Canada as a child, and a road trip she took to Las Vegas; the students would often ask, “Do you have a book with these stories?”
