Editorial Reviews
"IRREVERENT"
"...John Henderson is an irreverent, inked jester poking his penned sceptre at the powerful and letting everyone know that even in the North the emperor wears no clothes. Readers of Yellowknifer, News/North and Inuvik Drum who turn to his cartoon each week will love this book ... it's a must-have!" — Mike W. Bryant, Managing Editor, Northern News Services
"HILARITY"
"With cheerful, colourful and witty illustrations, John Henderson truly captures the essence and unique hilarity of day-to-day life in the North. With each turn of the page, anyone who has spent time in Canada's north can relate to these moments as ones that make the Great White North a unique and truly Canadian experience." — Robbie Craig, Celebrated Canadian Artist
"AMAZING AND ECCENTRIC"
"Being born and raised in the North, I sometimes forget how special this place is. John Henderson's book You Might Be From the Great White North If ... really captures what makes our part of the world amazing and eccentric at the same time." — Mikey McBryan, General Manager, Buffalo Airways, Yellowknife NWT
