BC Books Online was created for anyone interested in BC-published books, and with librarians especially in mind. We'd like to make it easy for library staff to learn about books from BC publishers - both new releases and backlist titles - so you can inform your patrons and keep your collections up to date.
Our site features print books and ebooks - both new releases and backlist titles - all of which are available to order through regular trade channels. Browse our subject categories to find books of interest or create and export lists by category to cross-reference with your library's current collection.
A quick tip: When reviewing the "Browse by Category" listings, please note that these are based on standardized BISAC Subject Codes supplied by the books' publishers. You will find additional selections, grouped by theme or region, in our "BC Reading Lists."
Created by Donna Washington, the illustrator of The Mouse, The Mole, and the Magnificent, Moss-Covered House, comes the companion colouring book Milly the Mouse and Morton the Mole. Suitable for children of all ages (and adults) who loved reading their story.
Donna Washington lives in Bellingham, WA. She enjoys excursions around the beautiful country-side and towns in the Pacific Northwest with her husband and two labradoodles. Her first drawings as a young child were of people, and that love of observing and drawing people continued throughout her life into college and art schools. She found her greatest encouragement as a painter at the National Academy of Fine Arts in New York City. While teaching art in elementary grade classrooms, the idea of illustrating a children's book was born. When Stirling C. wrote the Milly and Morton story, Donna felt like it had to be illustrated. Many of the details were brought from fond memories of childhood, especially with her grandmother.
