Description
A contemporary new series, featuring an appealing new protagonist and her modern family.
Saskia Spark-Lee: Trading Trouble introduces readers to Saskia Spark-Lee, a captivating character with a passion for collecting sparkles—shiny rocks, crafting gems, bits of glittery wrapping paper, and even dewdrops off the leaves in her garden. Enthralled by a classmate's shiny quartz stone, Saskia promises to trade her real diamond for it. The only problem is, she doesn’t have a diamond!
With the guidance of her two dads, Da and Dee, and a spangly surprise, Saskia navigates her trading troubles and kindles the spark of a new friendship.

When she isn’t reading, writing, listening to or talking about books, reading at the library or to her children, she is asleep. Her first picture book, Reflection, was a CBCA Notable book.
