On Global News, tonight at 6:30pm there was a good report on Kogawa House, interview with Tamsin Baker (TLC) and Joy Kogawa.

Marisa Taylor is the Global News reporter that captures the essence of the story, that by a wonderful coincidence also included a shot of students from David Lloyd George Elementary who just happened to be walking to see the house for a field trip after reading “Naomi’s Road”.
