If a lesson plan does not credit an author and has no date, follow this format:

Title [description -- APA Style uses square brackets to describe works other than typical scholarly sources]. (n.d.). Source.

This format is adapted from the "Webpage with no known author" and "Webpage with no date" examples in the APA Citation Style QuickGuide.

Reference example:

Art 20, social studies 20, treaty perspectives [Sample lesson plan]. (n.d.). Learn Alberta. Retrieved December 7, 2020, from http://www.learnalberta.ca/content/fnmilp/highschool.html

In-text citation, parenthetical: (Art 20, social studies 20, treaty perspectives, n.d.)
In-text citation, narrative: Art 20, social studies 20, treaty perspectives (n.d.)

To cite a book with an illustrator, list the illustrator in parentheses following the book's title.

Robertson, D. A. (2021). On the trapline (J. Flett, Illus.). Tundra Books.

In-text citation, parenthetical: (Robertson, 2021)

See APA Style's Children’s Book or Other Illustrated Book References for examples on citing a book with the author as illustrator, and the anniversary edition of a book. 

The "author" of resources such as reports or websites can be an organization or governing body (such as a government department). In these cases, the organization is the author and should be listed as such in your reference list entry and in-text citations.

An online retrieval date is only required for an unarchived source that is likely to change, such as a Twitter profile or Facebook page, or a webpage with no date.
