Product Description
by Caro Frechette (Illustrator), Michele Sabad (Author)
Michele Sabad takes us on one Canadian Army brat's life journey with stories about a childhood in Calgary, Germany, Labrador, and Saskatchewan; becoming a young Air Force wife and Hockey Mom in Edmonton, Kingston, Winnipeg, and Cold Lake; building a career in Information Technology; and finally, settling in a new culture and life in Ottawa and Aylmer, Quebec. Michele's story will interest, inspire, and enlighten both those who grew up in "the life" and those curious to peek at how this kind of life turned out. "A base brat life, sure, but one unique in Canadian history-kids don't grow up like this anymore-not even military kids. Fascinating insight; a slice of Canadiana."
