JOANNE LEVY’S love of books began at an early age. Being the youngest and only female child in a family of three brothers, she was often left to her own devices, which was most often reading books. After much teenage misadventure, Joanne eventually graduated from university and currently works as an executive assistant at a major Canadian bank planning meetings and thwarting coffee emergencies. When at home in Hamilton, Joanne can usually be found at the computer channeling her younger self into books. Small Medium At Large is her debut novel and we look forward to many more.

SMALL MEDIUM AT LARGE begins with the main character, Lilah Bloom, being hit by lightning while attending a wedding and as a consequence she develops a new talent: she can hear dead people. Among them, there is her over-opinionated Bubby Dora: a prissy fashion designer; and an approval-seeking clown who livens up a séance. With Bubby Dora leading the way, these and other sweetly imperfect ghosts haunt Lilah through seventh grade, and help her face her one big fear – talking to - and possibly going to the seventh-grade dance with her crush, Andrew Finkel.
