Congratualtions to Judith Saltman and Gail Edwards on the May 2010 release of "Picturing Canada: A History of Canadian Children's Illustrated Books and Publishing" by University of Toronto Press.

An interdisciplinary history, Picturing Canada provides a critical understanding of the changing geographical, historical, and cultural aspects of Canadian identity, as seen through the lens of children''s publishing over two centuries.
Gail Edwards and Judith Saltman illuminate the connection between children''s publishing and Canadian nationalism, analyse the gendered history of children''s librarianship, identify changes and continuities in narrative themes and artistic styles, and explore recent changes in the creation and consumption of children''s illustrated books.
