Join bestselling author Haley Healey for an afternoon of adventurous stories and brave women to celebrate the launch of her two new picture books—the first in the Trailblazing Canadians series from Heritage House.

Kimiko Murakami: A Japanese-Canadian Pioneer is the inspiring and true life story of a Salt Spring Island homesteader and internment camp survivor.
Lilian Bland: An Amazing Aviatrix is the amazing life story of Lilian Bland, the first woman ever to design, build, and fly her own airplane.

Haley will be reading from her books, speaking about the amazing women who inspire her work, and doing a short Q&A. She will be signing copies of her books after the event.

Books will be available to purchase at the event. Attendance is free, and everyone is welcome. These books are appropriate for children ages 4-8+.
