‘Every book is a conversation’ Kate DiCamillo on LOUISIANA’S WAY HOME
Travis: Louisiana’s Way Home is Kate DiCamillo’s first middle grade sequel (or more accurately in this case, companion novel). It also marks a return to first-person writing – something she hasn’t done since Because of Winn Dixie. It was a pleasure to talk with her about how these two things came to be.
We hope you enjoy the show.
