To recognize and thank some of the people and organizations that have helped make this wonderful book available classrooms and to get into teachers hands where it can be a tool to help nurture the creativity in thier students, we’ve created a new addition to “Miss Gallant’s Favourite Season” section of the website.
Click the book image on the main page and then “Supporters” to see some of the great things that are happening.
Exciting news !
Our very own Louise Christie along with artist Joan Power have finally reached the publishing stage and their book Miss Gallant’s Favourite Season is being released on June 18th, 2009. This wonderfully written and beautifully illustrated children’s book captures Paula’s artistic spirit and her ability to see the beauty our world possesses in it’s most simple gifts and to share this love of life and art with her students.
Congratulations Louise and Joan on a creating something that we can all treasure.
Well done!
Hello to all our dedicated followers of paulagallant.com !
Spring is here .. a time of renewal and a time of hope.
Below is a summary of changes and additions that have been made to the website since our last posting.
Hello to all,
The pages for the Awareness Campaign have been uploaded. You can find these new pages under Perseverance. This new section covers both the Glace Bay and Timberlea launch sites and documents the official launch of Paula’s Website and ,what we affectionately refer to as, Paula’s “P’s”. As of today we are approaching 7500 visitors since the site was launched and Paula’s “P’s” are finding thier way onto vehicles from Cape Breton To British Columbia.
Once again we thank all of you, new friends and old, for your support and ask you to continue to keep Paula’s story alive by passing along this website to your friends, family and collegues as we all work together towards the day when we can post “Case Solved” on the home page of www.paulagallant.com
