In many ways, Canadians do an excellent job of promoting their country’s own talent. One force behind this effort is The Canadian Children’s Book Centre (CCBC ; bookcentre.ca). The CCBC supports Canadian authors, illustrators, and publishers, increasing an appreciation for literature among youth through a variety of initiatives.
You may be surprised to know that two Estonian-Canadians — Urve Tamberg and Anne Remmel — are the respective President and Vice President of the CCBC’s Board of Directors. Read more below about the CCBC and these Estonians’ contributions to the cultural landscape of the country.
