Summary: What do CNET pop culture writer Bonnie Burton, Governor General Award-winning poet David Zieroth, journalist/novelist Sparkle Hayter, novelist/screenwriter John Patrick Gillese, and Canadian sport journalist Dick Beddoes have in common besides growing up on the Canadian Prairies? They were all first published in the Young Co-operator's Pages, a section of the Saskatoon-based farm newspaper, The Western Producer. Violet McNaughton, a women's advocate and editor at the Producer, created the club for young writers in 1927. It continued on, inspiring a love of literature and writing in children for nearly 60 years. Lily in the Loft is a fictional story, set in 1947 Saskatchewan, based on the experiences of thousands of children across all the prairie provinces--and even some outside this region--who eagerly awaited "newspaper day" to see their words in print. This is a book of regional historical interest, however, it is also a universal story about perseverance and determination in reaching one's goals.
