The Yarn LIVE with the 2024 Newbery Honor Winners! (Part I)

July 16, 2024 by Travis Jonker   Leave a Comment

Erin Bow, M.T. Anderson, Daniel Nayeri, Travis Jonker, Pedro Martin, and Nasuġraq Rainy Hopson

Travis: This is a special one, folks.

A couple weeks back I moderated a panel of the 2024 Newbery Honor winners (Erin Bow, M.T. Anderson, Daniel Nayeri, Pedro Martin, and Nasuġraq Rainy Hopson) at the ALA Annual Conference in San Diego.

Our conversation touches on a bunch of different topics, including getting “The Call” from the Newbery committee.

We hope you enjoy this episode:
