Fitch displays her wit and mastery of words in quick, rollicking rhymes that are complemented by Emma FitzGerald’s lively illustrations. EveryBody’s Different on EveryBody Street was originally produced in 2001 as a fundraiser to commemorate the 10th Anniversary of the Festival of Trees in support of the Nova Scotia Hospital and to raise awareness for mental illness and addiction. Rated Excellent by Resource Links and a Canadian Children’s Book News pick, which called it “a beautiful, important book with a message that will never cease to be relevant.”
