Humber College’s recently retired Vice President, Advancement & External Affairs, Alister Mathieson, is the author of five children’s books, including his newest book, Our Canada - A Year with Canuck Kids, written with co-authors Kelly Jackson, Associate Vice President, Government Relations, Marketing and Communications and Diane Simpson, Principal, Humber International Graduate School.

His other books include Canada: Our Road to Democracy; Canada: Our Home and Native Land; Grandma and Grandpa’s Toronto Adventure; and Are We There Yet?

Tomorrow is International Children’s Book Day, which is a great opportunity to gift your favorite little one with one of these books. Net proceeds from the sales are donated to The Blossom Fund.

Alister shared, “As an educator, I have always felt it important to maximize the opportunities for all students to have a comprehensive education irrespective of their own personal circumstances and challenges. The Blossom Fund provides specific funding assistance for students with disabilities and mental health challenges to ensure they have equal access and support to reach their educational potential."
