About this item
In the first entertaining installment in a new early chapter book series, one unfortunate kale incident isn't enough to stop the unbeatable Wednesday Wilson from pursuing her entrepreneurial dreams --- or is it?The most important thing to know about Wednesday Wilson is that she's an entrepreneur. She hasn't started any businesses yet, but she's pretty sure today is the day. She and her best friend, Charlie (Wednesday's future Vice President of Operations) , with some help from her little brother, Mister, have made a list of potential businesses. But before they get to move forward on one, there's an unfortunate incident in class with the Emmas (whose last initials happen to spell M.E.A.N.) involving a bearded dragon named Morten and a piece of kale .
About the Author
Bree Galbraith is a children's book author from Vancouver, BC. She will graduate from the University of British Columbia with a master's in Creative Writing in the spring of 2020, and will add this to her master of design from Emily Carr University, and hopefully be done advancing her education ... at least for now. Bree writes the kinds of books that she would have wanted her children to read when they were young. With one pre-teen, and one early teen, her kids noticed a lack of representation in media when they were growing up. As children of mixed race, they felt they weren't seeing themselves reflected in a book, and now work with their mom to add their voice to her work. Growing up on the campus of an art school helped her children speak critically about identity from a young age, so Bree is lucky to have them on board for this career!Her recent work focuses on the idea of little heroines breaking down power structures and creating change. She writes strong characters who are fed-up with the status-quo in their mythical universe, and use their power and ingenuity to ignite change. Her work has been described as having a contemporary fairytale vibe, and she uses metaphor to allow space for parents and educators to discuss different ideas that spring to mind in their children/students. She is always looking to connect with authors and educators, so please get in touch!
