CanLit recommendations: Alison Baird's The Dragon's Egg was my absolute favourite when I was growing up. William Bell's Stones is aimed at an older audience, but it is still very much pre-2010 YA. Jean Little is, as always, the GOAT of Canadian children's lit - Orphan at My Door, The Belonging Place, From Anna. Similarly, Kit Pearson's Guests of War trilogy.
