Lisa Doiron

Hello!

My name is Lisa Doiron and I am a school counsellor in Fort McMurray, Alberta. Our school uses the WITS program to teach kids conflict resolution/anti bullying strategies. Your book Restart is a WITS recommendation!!

Our grades 4-6 teachers (we have 6 classes in our school) are using your book as a class read aloud!! The kids are loving it and are wanting a movie version!

In our school division we have Reading Month in March. I am wondering about a virtual meet the author session with you. Can we please get more information about this - cost, availability. I tried to send an email but it didn't work for me.

Thanks so much! I look forward to hearing from you!
