Amy Poeppel, MUSICAL CHAIRS Jul 22, 2020

Show notes

The author of Musical Chairs and several other novels, Amy Poeppel is charming and down-to-earth. (Fun fact: she has lived all around the globe and is actually a former teacher.) Her latest book, which is structured lyrically and contains a zillion music references, is a story about an empty-nester (sort of) balancing a career and what life throws at her.

Chioma Momah, FIRST DAY AT THE BIG SCHOOL Jul 21, 2020

Show notes

I spoke to children’s book author Chiomah Momah from her home office all the way in Nigeria. (Ignore the part, please, when I didn’t realize the city she lived in was the capital! Oops!) Her picture book, First Day at the Big School, about a young child getting ready to go to school, is so relatable that I’ve already read it to my rising kindergartener several times. I loved hearing about how she found time to write it with her big full-time job and how she handled the pandemic!
