Person
STEVEN SANDOR is a journalist who writes on a variety of topics, including sports. He is the son of refugees who came to Canada in 1956. In writing this book, he was inspired by the people he interviewed for an award-nominated story on the Syrian refugee experience. In this story about opportunities large and small, his knowledge of kids and sports combines with a close look at the challenges to fitting in and succeeding faced by new Canadians and kids alike. Steven lives in Edmonton, Alberta.
