We are so excited to invite you all to the Toronto book launch of The Fabulous Edweena by Edwin Dumont and illustrated by Melissa Cho!
Join us as we celebrate this fabulous new picture book about a boy who loves drag! With a special performance by guest Kitten Kaboodle, winner of Miss Congeniality on Canada’s Drag Race season 4!!
About the book:
Edwin loves his sister Patsy’s closet. He adores dresses and earrings and boots with high heels. And when he’s finished getting dressed, Edwin is transformed…into the fabulous Edweena!
Today is the figure skating competition at school and Edwin has decided to compete as Edweena. What will people say when they meet her for the first time? Can a boy in drag win the competition? Edweena will have to give her best performance ever to find out!
Join us at Woody's on Church on Tuesday April 29th at 7pm at 467 Church Street, Toronto.
Glad Day Bookshop will be selling copies of The Fabulous Edweena and the Dual Language edition at the event, so be sure to grab a copy! The Dual Language edition is in both English and Anishinaabemowin (Ojibwe) with translations by Margaret Noodin and Angela Mesic.
We would like to thank the Toronto International Festival of Authors, Toronto Lit Up, and the Toronto Arts Council for their support with this event. #TorontoLitUP
