Marty Chan writes books for kids and plays for adults. Named one of Alberta's 25 most influential artists by the Alberta Foundation for the Arts, Marty is a champion for literacy. With his dynamic school presentations, he inspires reluctant readers to pick up a book and budding authors to commit pencil to paper. Through humour and storytelling, he shows students that writing can be fun and rewarding. In 2016, he served as the regional writer in residency for the libraries in Strathcona County, Fort Saskatchewan, and St. Albert. For more information about Marty, please visit www.martychan.com.
