Celebrate brand new Canadian picture books at the first Great Canadian Picture Book Party of 2026—via Zoom on Monday, April 27 from 7pm to 8:30pm ET.  

Presented by Picture Books, Eh!—a co-promotional group of Canadian picture book authors and illustrators, the Great Canadian Picture Book Party features Canadian creators with books published between January to May this year, who will each read their books.

Between each reading, there will be a 2 minute break for those who wish to write reviews while Canadian music plays in the background. The reviews can later be pasted into sites such as Goodreads, Indigo, Amazon, and Barnes & Noble. It is not expected that you write reviews, but it is encouraged and greatly appreciated if you do!

Like last time we have a surprise guest—a Canadian musician will join us to play one of their songs live!

This event is a great way to discover picture books being published right now, presented by the creators themselves. It’s also a really fun community event.

Register to attend as a viewer (people are free to pop in and out as their schedule allows), and the Zoom link will be in the confirmation email. 

We look forward to seeing you there!

Thank you,

Picture Books, Eh!
