  • Publisher: Tundra Books

Almost a Full Moon is a warm-hearted story of family, community, food and home. A boy and his grandmother host a gathering in their small cabin in the middle of winter. Friends travel from near and far, and some new friends even turn up. The walls of the cabin are elastic and the soup pot bottomless; all are welcome. Based on the lyrics of Hawksley Workman's song from his holiday album Almost a Full Moon, this book evokes both the cold and the coziness of a winter's night: crisp clean air, sparkling snow, the light of the moon, welcoming windows, glowing candles, family and friends. The spare text is beautifully complemented with the rich illustrations of Jensine Eckwall, a new talent to Tundra. She brings beauty and a hint of magic to Workman's evocative lyrics; together, they create a world and a night that will enchant readers of all ages.

It’s always 1973 in Bert Xanadu’s Toronto. As its longest-serving and longest-suffering mayor, he presides over a city as fantastical as a drip-dry shirt, and a cinema --- the Imperial Six --- as glamorous and subdivided as Ethel Merman’s last will and testament. He does it with panache, impatience, and dyspepsia, but who’s counting? From the thousands of scintillatingly coherent pronouncements he has made, these are truly the most available! “@MOVIEMAYOR makes me genuinely laugh out loud.” --- Actor and Comedian Brent Butt “Bert Xanadu is to Toronto what Dame Edna is to snobbery: a satire more accurate than the real thing.” --- Giller Award-Winning Novelist & Poet Michael Re...
