At home, the vacuum vrooms, the television blares and her twin sisters make a racket. Life outside the house is no better, with children splashing around the pool, carts squeaking at the supermarket and cars honking in the street. But when nighttime arrives, Nora can escape to her room, where she finally gets to hear the gentle brushing of branches against her windowsill and the soothing sounds of her family from the other side of the house. For Nora, nighttime is perfectly delightful.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-9d6595d7 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:33.33%\"><div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"216\" height=\"327\" src=\"https:\/\/library.torontomu.ca\/asianheritage\/files\/2026\/09\/The-Witching-Hours-book-cover.avif\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-22602\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:66.66%\">\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Anthology (Comics)<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The Witching Hours<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Edited by Hannah Lou Myers.<br>Vancouver: Cloudscape Comics, 2019.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This anthology of 11 comics by women and non-binary creators from Western Canada.<br>It includes Milne&#8217;s 8-page comic: <em>\u201cSisikit Din Ang Araw Kung Ikaw Ay Maghintay\u201d.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-9d6595d7 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:33.33%\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:66.66%\">\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Links<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>April dela Noche Milne <a href=\"https:\/\/www.aprilmilne.com\" data-type=\"link\" data-id=\"https:\/\/www.aprilmilne.com\">personal website<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Publisher <a href=\"https:\/\/kidscanpress.com\" data-type=\"link\" data-id=\"https:\/\/kidscanpress.com\">Kids Can Press<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>April dela Noche Milne is a mixed Filipino-Canadian illustrator, comics creator and author living in Vancouver, on the unceded territories of the Musqueam, Squamish, and Tsleil-Waututh peoples.
