There are so many titles and so many authors that are a part of Dundurn, it’s easy to miss out on some great reviews and interviews that take place.  Sometimes we just happen to stumble across them.  I happened to come across one that took place in June between author JoAnn Dionne (Little Emperors) and host Sarah Passmore of RTHK, a radio station based in Hong Kong.

It’s a great interview that reveals JoAnn’s experience teaching children in China back in 1996.  She offers her thoughts on how these children might impact China’s future.  Considering all the talk about the current state of China during the recent olympics in Beijing, this is actually quite timely!

Listen to the interview here!
