The Big Book of Spacing takes the best content from our magazine, website, and books from the last 20 years and gives them a second life. The articles in this book trace both our magazine’s and city’s evolution.
“This book is as gorgeous as it is important, taking vital civic issues and making them sing across the page with brilliant prose and design. Essential for any Torontonians’ bookshelf.” – Dave Bidini • musician, author, & publisher of the West End Phoenix

The city can't keep these critters out of anything! Now they're even in our mugs!
"A perfect gift for the animal lover or crafty person in your life. While we also carry a raccoon and blue jay kit, I have a soft spot for the pigeon. European settlers brought their domesticated carrier pigeons to North America, and as we stopped using pigeons in this way, we also stopped caring for them. If we can make room in our hearts for raccoons, let’s squeeze pigeons in there too. Plus the pigeon doll kit includes beautiful thread colours."

Staff Picks: Mary - Streetcar Toys $9 (mini) $30 (regular)
"I've sold so many (and bought quite a few) for streetcar-obsessed little kids. Which is all little kids! Unlike grumpy grown-ups waiting for the 501 at rush hour, preschoolers find streetcars absolutely enchanting. My own granddaughter can always be persuaded to go somewhere boring or unpleasant if it means riding a streetcar."
