Hello, everybodeee! There’s no monster at the end of this bonus episode–just a lot of overthinking about a beloved children’s book.
Listen as Emily and Tracie take a deep dive into the charming and oddly subversive 1973 classic The Monster at the End of this Book, starring lovable, furry old Grover. Emily explains how Grover taught her that every reader is an active participant in the story, and why this leads her to abandon books that are too cruel to their characters. Tracie shares how she learned to love dramatic irony and fourth wall breaking while listening to their Dad use a spot-on Grover voice. Both sisters bring up a LOT of other stories, movies, television, and books that relate back to this early favorite.
Join us as we think through the ethical implications of being a consumer of fiction, how reading is powerful rather than passive, and why the phrase “Do you know that you are very strong?” will always delight both Guy girls.

Roger Ebert on Nicholas Sparks: “To be sure, I resent the sacrilege Nicholas Sparks commits by mentioning himself in the same sentence as Cormac McCarthy. I would not even allow him to say "Hello, bookstore? This is Nicholas Sparks. Could you send over the new Cormac McCarthy novel?" He should show respect by ordering anonymously.”
