Deze aflevering is gepubliceerd en kan overal waar de podcast beschikbaar is, beluisterd worden. "Sinds haar moeder kort na haar geboorte verdween, woont de elfjarige Matilda boven Pages & Co, de boekwinkel van haar grootouders. Wanneer er in de winkel mysterieuze figuren verschijnen, die wel heel erg lijken op de personages uit bekende boeken, ontdekt Matilda de magie van 'boekdwalen'. Dapper stapt ze in een onbekende wereld, vastberaden het raadsel op te lossen van de verdwijning van haar moeder. Al snel ontdekt ze dat er een duistere kant zit aan het dwalen door boeken." In deze aflevering van Podcast de Boekenparade tippen we Pages & Co - Matilda en de boekdwalers, geschreven door Anna James, een auteur en journalist uit Londen. Ze werkte onder meer voor The Bookseller, Elle UK, en de LA Times. Ook maakt ze op Youtube filmpjes over boeken. Haar werk werd genomineerd voor verschillende prijzen, waaronder de London Book Fair Trailblazers Award in 2016. Met illustraties van Paola Escobar. Leen het boek bij één van onze vestigingen. Nog geen lid van de Forumbibliotheek? Tot 18 jaar ben je gratis lid! Podcast De Boekenparade tipt in elke aflevering een boek om voor te lezen aan je kinderen. Kinderboekenexpert Aafke van Forum Groningen kiest een boek waaruit Jeroen van Studio Hoorzaam uit voorleest. Vaak zoeken we daarbij een haakje met wat er in het Forum gebeurt.

So click that play button and tune in to our conversation with her about snacks, books, writing, and wandering. Plus, there's all the usual nonsense! Happy listening . . . This is a public episode.

A short novel about a woman who breaks quarantine to go for a walk, it brings back the claustrophobia of isolation and raises the question, are we ready for pandemic fiction? A great book club read.

Elin drar till Åre för att träffa spänningsförfattaren Mikaela Bley, som släppt boken ”Död för dig” i nya serien The Killer, och mötet handlar om boken, vad som kan finnas bakom tjusiga fasader, att anpassa sig, att ta risker och vilka berättelser vi har om oss själva. Annelie poddar med jazzröst och Elin vill hellre ha rys än mys. Moffa, alltså berättelsetips, är artisten Self Esteem, bokserien Den magiska bokhandeln av Anna James och serien Yellowstone av Kevin Costner. Podcasten Elin möter görs av författaren Elin Olofsson och producenten Annelie Lanner.
Life was just moving along for Anna, until on the 16th of November 2020, her life changed forever. Finding out that her only son was dead. Receiving a message at 5am in my message box I was at her side before the end of the day. No parent should ever outlive their own child, let alone a 26 year old gorgeous boy, named Tyler, a boy I had known since he was just five years old. How can parents, sisters, family or friends get through something like this? They will of course never get over it, but I talk to Anna in this podcast about some of the tools she is using to help her on a day to day basis, and some of the things that you can do to help someone you may know going through something as tragic as this. I am truly grateful to Anna for having the courage to speak about this very tender and emotional subject, I know that it could not have been easy. I love you.www. sohovian.comSupport the show (https://vickiemagic.com.au/the-wake-up-club/)

Would the Democratic Party really run someone as inauthentic as Kamala Harris when voters are demanding authenticity? Based on how Kamala Harris did in the 2020 Democratic Primaries (or rather, how badly she did), it doesn't seem to be wise to present her as the only option... and yet, that might be the only thing the Democrats can do. Anna James Zeigler returns to the program to show who else the Democrats might consider, and if they do run Kamala Harris, how that could be great news for the Republicans (Ron DeSantis, anyone?).

Feedback Tilly and the Bookwanderers by Anna James (rec’d by Lauren) Strange the Dreamer by Laini Taylor (rec’d by Leenie) Questions 1. At the recommendation of the podcast, last year I read (and loved!) Braiding Sweetgrass and The Overstory. I’m looking for more books to add to my TBR list with naturalist elements. Is there a book version of Planet Earth but with trees and plants?? Like many I’ve had a challenging year with quarantine stress and non-COVID health issues, so I would prefer something that isn’t a portrait of grief (H is for Hawk, beautiful but too sad!) or about the total destruction of our world as we know it due to climate change. Open to all genres except horror, and please no sexual violence or violence towards children. Thank you! -Emily 2. I am sure you have recommended this type of book before, but unsure how to find them. I have not read a romance book in years and feel the need to. I can not remember a book that would closely match what type I would like to read. Its the ‘Will they or Won’t they’ type of romance. Some examples of tv shows that display this is as follows: Castle: Richard & Kate, Moonlighting: David & Maddie, The Nanny: Fran & Mr. Sheffield, The X-Files: Mulder & Scully, Remington Steele: Remington & Laura, Law & Order SVU: Elliot & Olivia, House: House and Cuddy, Bones: Temperance & Seeley, NCIS: Tony & Ziva, Frasier: Daphne & Niles, Star Trek TNG: Picard and Beverly and The West Wing: Donna & Josh. I know, mostly 80’s shows. Once they are together, I am no longer interested. Also bonus if female in story somehow gets hurt physically and he helps her out. I am not picky as to if it’s an action, contemporary, fantasy, gothic, historical romance etc. book or not. Thank for your help. -Kelly 3. After years of working from home, I’m about to start commuting again, and will be spending at least 2 hours a day in the car. I’m hoping for an entertaining and engaging audiobook with a plot that hooks you in, to help me pass the time. I’d prefer fiction, as right now I only really listen to nonfiction audiobooks and am looking to expand my horizons, but I’m open to anything. I’m open to any genre, but my favorites are mysteries/whodunits, fantasy, and historical fiction. (Sorry if this is too vague!) Thank you so much, I’m such a big fan of the show

Sarah and Cranky were thrilled to give Anna James Zeigler a second act after the first was full of technical issues (we still heard her brilliance, just in an unusual way). They manage to have a lot of fun and find many silver linings (serious and unserious) in all the chaos. Throw in a really interesting postmortem on the Trump era and some reasonable predictions that might also add more silver linings, and it made for a really great episode.

Imagine you are 11-years-old and live in a bookshop with your grandparents. Then one day, Anne Shirley is sitting on a bench on the top floor. If this sounds like a dream come true, then this episode is definitely for you. I'm super lucky to chat with fellow book lover and super talented author, Anna James. For the past two years, Anna's Pages & Co books have been flying off the shelves. Beloved by readers of all ages, this series (the third one is out later this year)is magical, whimsical and such a treat to read. In the first book, 'Tilly and the Bookwanderers,' which was published in 2018, we meet 11-year-old Tilly Pages who lives with her grandparents in their bookshop, Pages & Co. On a very special day in the shop, Tilly encounters her favourite book characters and with the help of her grandparents and best friend, Oskar, she learns all about the magic of bookwandering. This new power leads to some fantastic adventures and the important answers that Tilly has been searching for her whole life. The second book, 'Tilly and the Lost Fairy Tales,' which was published last year, is another must-read. The adventures continue when Tilly and Oskar travel to Paris to spend time with Oskar’s family at Christmas. It’s so exciting to get lost in popular fairy tales, meet new characters and see Oskar learn more about his equally special bookwandering family. I had so much fun chatting with Anna about our mutual love of books, what inspires Anna’s writing and why storytelling will always be essential and important for readers today and in the future.

Meredith and Kaytee return to their microphones (albeit, one is in a different location than normal) to talk all things reading and great books. You’ll hear a “bookish moment of the week” from each of us: choosing road trip audiobooks and a new Little Free Library update! Next, we discuss our current reads for the week: there’s no rhyme or reason to our picks this week but almost all of them are wonderful. Which is my favorite thing. For our deep dive this week, we chat about books we buy and books we borrow and books we keep. How do we decide which books deserve a place on the physical TBR shelf (rather than the library hold list)? How do we decide which ones to let go of (and where to put them) when we’ve read them? As always, we finish up with A Book (yep, capitalized) that we’d like to press into every reader’s hands. This week’s picks are a great beach read option and a lovely autobiography. As per usual, time-stamped show notes are below with references to every book and resource we mentioned in this episode.
