Then take part in this weekend’s Give Away Days.Started by the former City of Kanata and now City wide, this is a time toput unwanted but useable items at the end of your driveway with a sign“FREE” and then cruise the neighbourhood to see what items you coulduse. Anything safe goes – from clothing to toys to gadgets and workingappliances, to left-over drywall and other construction items. Just becertain to place items you want to keep away from the curb! If you haveleftovers from a garage sale, put them out. Items will then be reused, themost effective way to recycle them.

He’s at the right age to beable to sit through the entirestory and appreciate the wholething,” she added.“He really likes it. He knowsthe character is based on him.”Using Cole as inspiration formain character Nicholas, Changalso used her son’s friends as thebasis for the supporting cast.“I just kind of kept them inmind while I was writing thecharacters out,” said Chang,who works as an IT supportspecialist.So far, Chang has sold around100 copies of The Littlest Knightand is working on translatingthe book into French.The book is geared towardschildren between ages fourand eight, with 32 full-colourpages.Initially, Chang said shehadn’t thought she’d write morebooks, but now the wheels areturning and The Littlest Knightcould become part of a series,adding she also has other ideaspercolating in the background.Chang will be at Tag AlongToys on June 1 from 11 a.m. to 2p.m. The book can be purchasedat the Kanata store, at PerfectBooks on Elgin Street or onlineat www.tytanima.com.Aside from being a self-publishedauthor, Chang has alsowritten newspaper articles,poetry, fan fiction, and is a coauthorof Orpheus Musical TheatreSociety: The First HundredYears.Follow us!@KourierStandard
