Thanks to John of The Book Mine Setfor hosting this awesome challenge again!
You don’t have to be Canadian to join! Come join the fun!
Here’s what John says about the challenge:
From Canada Day to Canada Day, can you read and review at least 13 Canadian books?
Starting July 1st, 2009 and ending July 1st, 2010, I challenge Canadians and non-Canadians to read 13 or more Canadian books. Pick fiction, pick nonfiction, pick poetry, graphic novels, picture books, plays, etc– if it’s Canadian and if it’s a book, it’s in. What makes a book Canadian? Let’s ask Doug Webster:
“A Canadian book is defined as a book written by Canadians and/or about Canadians.
“What makes a Canadian?”Canadian refers to someone born in or immigrated to Canada.
“But you know, Doug Webster isn’t related to that other Webster. He’s just some guy from Scarborough. Besides, this is your challenge. You decide which books make the cut and which ones don’t.
Pick authors and books at random or theme your challenge should you be so inclined.
I am going to choose the random approach again. There are so many different Canadian books and authors on my TBR that I don’t want to limit myself.

The first one was so much fun so I just have to sign up for round II!
For the first challenge, I participated in memory of my dog Robbie. This week is the one year anniversary of his death. We still miss him!
This time I would like to participate in memory of my cat, Tina. She was with me for 19 years and died last December. I miss her too!
Please show your support by clicking on this link and donating free pet food (that’s right, no cost to you, just the time it takes to click.) Here’s the link or you can click on the picture of Tina. Once there, you can also subscribe to get a daily email reminder to click to donate free food.
Please leave a comment to let me know you donated food. Thanks!!
