(On winning the 2006 Barbara Novak Award for Excellence in Humour/Personal Essay Writing, from the Professional Writers Association of Canada):

“We’re delighted that Kathy Buckworth’s humour writing is getting more recognition, in particular this award from PWAC for an article published in Today’s Parent. Whether she’s writing about toilet training or grocery shopping, her drop-dead-funny observations spring from the gritty realities of family life that every parent can relate to.”
