On a snowy February morning, Xiao Ling Li and her parents take part in a citizenship ceremony. From the recitation of the Oath of Canadian Citizenship to the singing of the national anthem and the wonderful welcoming party afterward with all of its tantalizing treats, the day is filled with wonderful memories for the new Canadians.
Jo Bannatyne-Cugnet writes novels and picture books. Her first book, A Prairie Alphabet with illustrator Yvette Moore became an instant bestseller and won many awards. The two also collaborated on A Prairie Year. A mother of four sons, Jo Bannatyne-Cugnet lives with her family on a cattle and wheat farm in Saskatchewan.
