I’m your host Emily, and welcome to “Beyond a Bedtime Story: A Parent's Guide to Children's Reading"! Children’s literature is rapidly changing, so learn how you can keep up with its development and best support your child. We’ll begin with a deep dive, full of entertaining and insightful observations, of my research within a Kindergarten classroom last school year. Stay up-to-date with your library selections by hearing from my past and current favorite picture books. Step into the mind of a young author as I discuss the successes and challenges of writing my own book, and be the first people to hear snippets of the material!
