Sharing the MG lit love!

A few weeks ago I got to chat with Corrina Allen, host of Books Between, about middle grade books we love, classic titles that may disappoint us as adults, diversity in children's literature, and so much more. The episode was released today and can be found at the Books Between website and on iTunes. Enjoy!

What's wrong McFly? Chicken?

(click on episode title to listen to podcast)


I was scrolling through my Twitter feed the other day and there it was, the latest innovation for urban farmers who want to show off their feathered friends to their neighbors: a stroller for chickens. Yep, you heard me correctly. A stroller. For chickens. Apparently, the chicken crossed the road because he was being pushed. Seeing that picture of pampered poultry got me thinking about books starring the little squawkers and I knew I had to dedicate an episode to the topic.
