The Stoplight
by
Candace Breanne
The Stoplight is a story about life and love told through an inanimate object. It tackles the complex issue of grief and introduces it to children in words they will understand. The Stoplight allows for the reader to connect with an object with no identity, giving them the freedom to insert themselves and their own story into the pages.
Candace Breanne is a first time Canadian author. Raised along side 3 brothers in a small town called Newton, Candace was accustomed to a busy life with constant playmates. In 2019, Candace lost her brother Colton, to Osteosarcoma. In the months that followed, Candace struggled to articulate the full emotion that came from such a loss until one Tuesday in the shower, the story of The Stoplight came to life. Candace has always loved story telling and communicating her journey through that medium was a natural fit. Her desire as an author is to tell stories for minority audiences, believing firmly that everyone should see themselves represented on the shelves. Candace now resides at the beach in Toronto with her husband Reuben.
