Susin Nielsen Virtual Event Premiere

Posted By Jacob Hope, 13 June 2021

Susin Nielsen started her career writing for television penning episodes of Degrassi Junior High and Degrassi High.  Susin’s first young adult novel was published in 2008, Word Nerd.  She won the Governor General's award for her novel The Reluctant Journal of Henry K  K Larsen.  Susin’s novels have been published in fifteen languages.  Susin lives in Vancouver, Canada with her family and cats.  As well as writing, Susin loves to road bike, spend time in the great outdoors, read and travel.

 

Susin’s latest novel is Tremendous Things, a funny heartfelt story about learning to rise above our worst moments whilst staying true to ourselves.  It features Wilbur Nunez-Knopf.  In the lead-up to the announcements of the 2021 Carnegie and Kate Greenaway medas, we are delighted that Susin will be talking with Youth Libraries Group Award winner 2020, Zoey Dixon in a special film releasing on YouTube today.  Click here to watch the video
