I Read Canadian Day

February 2020 marked the very first I Read Canadian Day! Canadian author Eric Walters created this day to promote and celebrate the hard work and incredible books by Canadian authors and illustrators. Canadian creators are truly some of the very best in the world (and some of the nicest too) and we will take any opportunity to spread awareness and get their books into as many hands as possible.

Here is some info from the official website:

I Read Canadian Day is a new nationwide initiative that celebrates the richness, diversity and breadth of Canadian literature. Taking place for the third year on November 5, 2025, this celebration will empower families, schools, libraries, bookstores and organizations to host activities and events by reading Canadian books for just fifteen minutes. For more information, visit ireadcanadian.ca/day and sign up for free to participate. Help get the word out on social media by following @IReadCanadian and using the hashtag #IReadCanadian. 

Brock is proud to participate in this fun day each year!
