Melissa Albert has won international acclaim as a children’s author, with her books translated into more than 20 languages. Now, drawing on her experience, and a wide range of classic children’s literature, she has ventured into the realms of adult fiction with her novel The Children.Described by one reviewer as ‘a joyously grim adult fairy tale’, it explores the legacy imposed upon children who were models for characters in books that have become classics of children’s literature, such as A.A. Milne’s son Christopher Robin, and the Llewelyn Davies boys, portrayed as Peter Pan and his Gang of Lost Boys by J.M. Barrie. As well as exploring the human cost of art and celebrity, the novel was inspired by Melissa revisiting some of her favourite childhood books and finding them to be darker than she'd remembered.Join Melissa and Red as they bite into the poison apple of fame, and explore stories whose protagonists are destined to remain forever young.  About AMIAMI is a media company that entertains, informs and empowers Canadians with disabilities through three broadcast services — AMI-tv and AMI-audio in English and AMI-télé in French — and streaming platform AMI+.
