Meet the Author Jennifer Wallace (One Book One Province)

Meet the Author Jennifer Wallace (One Book One Province) In-Person / Online

The 2024 One Book One Province title is Miss G and me: a daughter's memoir of her mother in a collection of anecdotes, journals, poetry, and personal essays by Jennifer S. Wallace.

Jennifer S. Wallace will visit the Archer Library for a hybrid Meet-the-Author event.

Jennifer S Wallace is a French immersion teacher, judo sensei, writer, artist, and author. She loves teaching, singing, painting, reading, travelling, and buying too many children’s books. Weaving together poems, journal entries, anecdotes, and personal essays, the award-winning Miss G and Me shares a daughter’s insights into her Jamaican mother’s immigration story and familial relationships.

Ruth Williamson, aka Miss G, grew up in Jamaica, then travelled to England for nursing training. Ruth then chose her own path, which led her to Canada. In rural Saskatchewan, she worked as a nurse while adjusting to the culture and climate of the Canadian Prairies.

Books will be available for sale and author signing.
