    Join host Ron Robinson this Thursday at 5 pm on Pages when he talks to the man in the spotlight, Jake MacDonald.

    Jake’s Young Adult novel, Juliana and the Medicine Fish has been chosen for On the Same Page – all of Manitoba reading the same book. What is about this novel that speaks to such a wide audience… and how does an old dad get into the mind of a 13 year old girl as narrator?

    Ron will also have a copy to give away and will repeat the interview on the Saturday Morning Show at 7:45.
