"This wonderful collection of stories and poems celebrate 18 internationally-recognized special days, from International Literacy Day to International Left-Handers Day. Though the authors and illustrators are from many different countries around the world, eight authors and seven illustrators are from Canada."
Review by Ken Kilback, Canadian Children’s Book News 32:4 (Fall 2009), p. 26
"Gumboot Books and some key Canadian authors and a key Rotary sponsor have produced A WORLD OF STORIES (Gumboot Bks ‘08, 9780978435110). This book is a collection of stories chosen to celebrate a number of international holidays. My favourite piece is the one written by Kari-Lynn Winters for International Literacy Day. This book is being sold to raise funds to support literacy and the publisher is offering this book as a potential fund raiser for schools and groups."
