Children's
books have come a long way since Nancy Drew solved her first case. In
the mystery genre alone Canadian kids like gal sleuth Stevie Diamond
or the intrepid Screech Owl hockey team are now tracking down clues.
-
Children's
books literally cover every topic in the universe, and dozens of
titles are released monthly. Cathy MacDonald's Kid Lit column sifts
through those new releases to help parents find the perfect book for
their child.

MacDonald, a
mother of four, has a built-in panel of critics from pre-schooler to
teen to help. A reporter with 17 years of experience, her monthly Kid
Lit column has appeared in the Halifax Daily News for the last five
years.
