Get ready for a captivating journey into the world of kid's books! In this episode, host Jed Doherty chats with two talented authors who are bringing their unique visions to life.
First up, we meet Mary Trudeau, the brilliant mind behind the debut children's book "A Tale of Two Planets." Mary shares how her work in environmental conservation inspired her to create a story that celebrates the wonders of our incredible planet. As she describes the magical features of Earth that we often take for granted, you can't help but be in awe of the natural world around us.
Mary also opens up about the challenges and joys of transitioning from her career in water management to becoming a published kids' author. Her passion for protecting the environment shines through, and you'll be inspired to appreciate the small miracles happening in your own backyard, just like the monarch butterflies and hummingbirds that captivate Mary.
Next, we chat with Howard Pearlstein, the author of the delightfully mischievous picture book "This Book Is Not for You." Howard's background in the fast-paced world of advertising has given him a unique perspective on crafting engaging stories for young readers. He explains how he flipped the script, creating a book that kids will love, even though the main character insists it's not for them.
As Howard shares his journey from advertising to children's books, you'll be struck by his unwavering passion and commitment to his craft. He offers valuable insights on building an author brand, navigating the publishing industry, and the importance of perseverance in the face of rejection.
Whether you're a parent, educator, or simply a lover of great storytelling, this episode is a must-listen. Dive into the magic of children's books and discover how these talented authors are creating works that inspire, entertain, and bring families closer together.
