Loved this Q&A with @deborahkalb.bsky.social

Nancy Hudgins, the author of Books Good Enough for You, a middle-grade biography of editor Ursula Nordstrom, joined us to discuss I'll Get There. It Better Be Worth the Trip by John Donovan, the first YA book to feature a gay romance. rereadingourchildhood.buzzsprout.com/2169533/epis... #Pride

Author Alex Poppe joined us to talk about Deenie, Judy Blume's story about a girl, pigeonholed by her family as the pretty one, who discovers she has scoliosis. rereadingourchildhood.buzzsprout.com/2169533/epis...

We reread Eleanor Estes's The Moffats at a friend's suggestion and had a great time returning the story of four children growing up in a small Connecticut town in the 1910s. rereadingourchildhood.buzzsprout.com/2169533/epis...

We celebrated the beginning of our fourth (!) season by finally rereading E.L. Konigsburg's From the Mixed-Up Files of Mrs. Basil E. Frankweiler, one of our all-time favorites. rereadingourchildhood.buzzsprout.com/2169533/epis...

For our latest podcast episode, we reread Madeleine L'Engle's The Young Unicorns, the third book in her Austin Family series. We discussed 1960s New York, racial representation, and how absolutely bonkers this book is. rereadingourchildhood.buzzsprout.com/2169533/epis...

We did a Q&A about the podcast for the middle grade book blog Smack Dab in the Middle and had fun revisiting our first three season. smack-dab-in-the-middle.blogspot.com/2026/02/rere...
