Our Third Annual Year-in-Review Episode!

December 30, 2020 by Travis Jonker   Leave a Comment

Travis: A couple nights ago, Colby and I sat down to look back at children’s literature in 2020. It’s a long episode, and we cover a lot of ground – from our favorite books to our Youth Media Awards predictions, and lots in between.

We hope you enjoy the episode.
