Congratulations to Léa Taranto - her YA novel A DROP IN THE OCEAN is a Forest of Reading White Pine Award Honour Book!

THE LIFE OF A CREATURE by Nadja Lubiw-Hazard is an astonishing debut story collection about the interconnection between humans and animals navigating love, loss, and healing.

Creatures swim, slither, and soar their way through this stunning short story collection about the inextricable nature of humans and animals that celebrates and bears witness to our fellow creatures and to the complex emotional terrain of our own lives.

A woman’s personal trauma and anxiety are intertwined with the lives of the feral dogs abandoned in the Chernobyl exclusion zone. As a le***an love affair unravels, the secrets of a gift-giving crow are revealed. The life of a veterinarian is told through the animals that she has loved and that she has tried to save. A dying man dreams of returning as a vulture after death. The plight of sea turtles on the brink of extinction weaves through a mother's devastation over the loss of a daughter.

Beautiful in its renderings of human experience, THE LIFE OF A CREATURE is a tender and haunting book imbued with the deeply sensory intimacies of the animal world.

🌟 “A beautiful and complex book. The stories weave through the emotional terrain of death and love and of the roles that animals play in our lives, their intertwined relationship to us. I don't think I've ever read a book quite like this one.” —Deb Olin Unferth, author of BARN 8
