Although this book isn’t by a Canadian author I felt it deserved a review on this site anyway.
The Tiny Caterpillar and the Great Big Tree 
is a children’s book written by author Kelly Moran that is sure to impress parents and children of all ages.
With its colourful illustrations done by Lynn Lorbeske, The Tiny Caterpillar learns about acceptance, forgiveness and adventure while realizing that change and differences are nothing to cower from. Moran has readers follow the tale of the relationship between a tiny caterpillar and the great big world around him through persistence and devotion to friendships already made.
Falling in love with Moran’s collection of short stories and poems in An Insomniac’s Dream: A Collection of Poems and Short Stories 
I knew I had to get her children’s book for my newest addition. When she offered me a copy for review I couldn’t pass up the amazing offer and will soon be buying my own copy of this fantastic story.
Thanks for reading,
Sarah Butland

With my first child on the way I decided to fill my child’s bookshelf with Canadian authors and will post reviews on each book. I’d love to have your help with this.
How to help:
- Tell me your favourite Canadian children’s book author
- Share your favourite Canadian children’s book
- If you’re an author yourself, ask for my address and send me a copy
It doesn’t matter to me the age target, anything will do. I will review them all!
Thanks for your help.

Currently my children’s book helping fight childhood obesity is #77 in Children’s Books - Science, Natures & How It Works - Health - Fiction on Amazon.ca. This is such a specific category that is perfect for the first of the Adventures Of Sammy series that I know it won’t take much to put and keep it #1. It may seem like a small accomplishment but it’ll definitely be a start in the right direction.
Once we get it to appear as #1 in this category we’ll take over another until it’s the #1 in the Children’s Books category!!’
