Public Library

A lot of the books recommended on this blog can be found in the Toronto Public Library.  Similar but different titles could be accessed as well - either by using the catalogue, browsing in the children's section or asking the librarian for help.

The catalogue can be accessed at the library or online  www.torontopubliclibrary.ca
