Children's author book launch
The official launch for North Vancouver children's book author Victoria Miles' latest book, Mimi Power and the I-don't-know-what took place Dec. 6 at Lower Lonsdale's Café for Contemporary Art. The book was illustrated by Marc Mongeau and follows "artist, animal lover and would-be swimming sensation" Mimi Power and the challenges faced following the birth of her little sister, including finding "creative space in all the chaos," particularly in the lead-up to the school art show. Guests were treated to readings from the book, treats inspired by the story and "Cake Bingo." Proceeds from the evening supported Christianne's Lyceum of Literature and Art.
