Reviews: “Read this beautiful book about Jack’s passion for the arts. He loved to make music, dance and he was happiest when he led massive sing-alongs. I hope Jack’s story will inspire you to live your life based on love, hope and optimism.” Olivia Chow, NDP MP Trinity Spadina, Toronto
“If you want a better Canada; if you want to know what Canada can be, then you need to allow yourself to be inspired by Jack Layton. And this superb, engaging book is the place to start.” Tim Flannery (The Weather Makers, chairman of the Copenhagen Climate Council)
