You May Contribute A Verse

I’m Brenna Jeanneret, children’s lit author, mother, rock climber, outdoors person, and podcaster joined by Josh Monken, children’s lit author, father, science communicator, and podcaster. Josh and I have embarked on this kidlit journey together this year, having become critique partners early in the year, only to find that our powers combined could make captain planet. Maybe not, but at least our powers combined can make a pretty good podcast.  Our guest for this conversation was Jolene Gutierrez. You can find Jolene on Twitter, Instagram, or her linktree.  This episode’s book reviews: THE CHRISTMAS GIANT by Steve Light I HATE BORSCH!
