The Good Fight by Ted Staunton with art by Josh Rosen released on June 1, 2021. Set in Toronto during the summer of 1933, everyone wants to head to the lake, but a neighborhood association is trying to keep out “undesirables,” and its members patrol wearing silver swastika pins. Sid faces difficult choices as he wrestles with honesty, bigotry, poverty and his role in a gang of pickpockets.
You can join Staunton and Josh in a virtual book launch with The Beguiling on June 24th, 7pm Est, live on Instagram.
“Rosen’s vivid and engaging illustrations add a wonderful sense of time and place. The Good Fight is a solid introduction for young readers to issues of prejudice, loyalty, and the immigrant experience.“
—Quill and Quire
