About
Is children's literature just for kids? Absolutely not! Hosts Sarah and Chandler rediscover the beauty and importance of good children's literature through discussions of a wide range of stories and tales. And thanks to Chandler's love of music and Sarah's love of food, each episode features a segment on an album and a type of food that would pair well with the book of the week. Please join us as we fall in love all over again with childhood friends and discover literature that reminds us how the purpose of good children's literature is to teach us how to grow up well.
