It felt like half of Winnipeg showed up to the bookstore today as Devon Clunis launched the children's book based on his life, The Little Boy From Jamaica. It's the story of Devon's life as a child coming from Jamaica to Winnipeg. Clunis' hope is that every child gets a chance to achieve their dream. 

The book launch was a success. Over 150 people showed up and crowded together in the atrium. The store was running low on books, having to take a reserve box of books brought by the Clunis'.
