Growing up with Julie is the title of Gerry Steele’s first book. Julie was his mother, an Acadian woman who married into a Scottish family. Steele's book examines the racism suffered by his mother - while she worked to raise a family in poverty. Then we meet athlete Bo Hedges. Hedges was on the national men’s wheelchair basketball team at the Paralympic Games in Beijing this year. Canada won the silver, but lost the gold medal to Australia.
