Picture Books Are for Grown-Ups, Too!
A Few Stories While You Wait . . .
I won’t be releasing the first official episode of this podcast until sometime in January 2023. However, I just wrapped up recording my first couple of interviews. These were great conversations about how picture books can create connection. But while you wait for the first show, I thought I’d share a couple stories about my grown-up experience with picture books because sharing stories is something I love to do!
Picture Books mentioned in this bonus episode:
I Love My Hair! by Natasha Anastasia Tarpley and illustrated by E. B. Lewis
All the Places We Call Home by Patrice Gopo and illustrated by Jenin Mohammed
The Day You Begin by Jacqueline Woodson and illustrated by Rafael López
