    154 Mark Lefebvre on "The Best Laid Plans" by Terry Fallis
    Oct 2 2023
    This week's guest is one of my favorite readers, writers and humans on the planet: Mark Lefebvre. Mark has been pushing Terry Fallis' books on me practically since we met, and I'm so glad I finally took his advice. We had a great time discussing political satire, reading slumps, and the differences between American and Canadian humor sensibilities.

I am so brave.)  Fifth Business by Robertson Davies Catcher In The Rye by J.D.

  • 153 Kate Reynolds on "A Day With No Words" by Tiffany Hammond

    153 Kate Reynolds on "A Day With No Words" by Tiffany Hammond
    Sep 18 2023

    This week I'm so delighted for you to meet Kate Reynolds, also known as The Lavender Librarian. Kate is a passionate advocate of inclusive storytimes for children, and she has some innovative ideas for how to share reading time with kids. 

    I was initially hesitant when Kate suggested we read a children's book for this episode - afraid that we wouldn't have enough to talk about to fill the half hour. But I was so, so wrong. Talking to librarians is always a wonderful experience, but talking to this particular one about this particular book was extra-specially magic.
