“I think kids are actually generally a better audience for literary fiction, for art, for ambitious storytelling that asks the reader to do work. And a lot of that is just based on how their brains work and their place in the world.” - Mac BarnettGrowing up, Mac Barnett's mom never took their picture books off their shelves. They remained a part of his reading world, even as he grew up and could read more mature books. Maybe that choice helped Mac's youthful spirit alight for longer. As he often notes, kids' minds are portals to the imaginary, to making believe. For them, everything is possible: superheroes, magic, ghosts. Mac believes that open-mindedness is crucial to fully understanding and appreciating fiction, which is why he makes the argument that kids are the best audience for fiction, and in particular, picture books. Mac Barnett is a best-selling, prolific children's author celebrated for his clever, imaginative storytelling and sharp sense of humor. He is known for books like “Extra Yarn,” “Sam and Dave Dig a Hole,” “The Terrible Two,” series and the “Mac B, Kid Spy” series. He has received numerous accolades, including two Caldecott Honors and the E.B. White Read-Aloud Award. In this episode, Mac shares why he believes that most adults struggle to understand what makes a good children's book. He also unpacks “Frog and Toad” as a work of experimental fiction and reflects on the lessons he's learning from his three-year-old son. Given Mac's passion for picture books, it's fitting that his reading challenge centers around them. For his challenge, “The Possibilities of Picture Books,” he has curated a selection designed to help us see the capaciousness of the picture book format—just as his mother once did for him.

Go to sleep listening to me read "Goodnight Moon" Book by Margaret Wise Brown

Margaret Wise Brown (May 23, 1910 – November 13, 1952) was an American writer of children's books, including Goodnight Moon (1947) and The Runaway Bunny (1942), both illustrated by Clement Hurd. She has been called "the laureate of the nursery" for her achievements.Brown was born in the Brooklyn borough of New York City, the middle child of three children of Maude Margaret and Robert Bruce Brown. She was the granddaughter of politician Benjamin Gratz Brown. Her parents had an unhappy marriage. She was initially raised in Brooklyn's Greenpoint neighborhood, and later attended Chateau Brilliantmont boarding school in Lausanne, Switzerland, in 1923, while her parents were living in India and Canterbury, Connecticut.In 1925, Brown attended The Kew-Forest School. She began attending Dana Hall School in Wellesley, Massachusetts, in 1926, where she did well in athletics. After graduation in 1928, Brown went on to Hollins College in Roanoke, Virginia.Brown was an avid, lifelong beagler and was noted for her ability to keep pace, on foot, with the hounds.Following her graduation with a B.A. in English from Hollins in 1932, Brown worked as a teacher and also studied art. While working at the Bank Street Experimental School in New York City she started writing books for children. Bank Street promoted a new approach to children's education and literature, emphasizing the real world and the "here and now". This philosophy influenced Brown's work; she was also inspired by the poet Gertrude Stein, whose literary style influenced Brown's own writing.Brown's first published children's book was When the Wind Blew, published in 1937 by Harper & Brothers. Impressed by Brown's "here and now" style, W. R. Scott hired her as his first editor in 1938. Through Scott, she published the Noisy Book series among others. As editor at Scott, one of Brown's first projects was to recruit contemporary authors to write children's books for the company. Ernest Hemingway and John Steinbeck neglected to respond, but Brown's hero, Gertrude Stein, accepted the offer. Stein's book The World is Round was illustrated by Clement Hurd, who had previously teamed with Brown on W. R. Scott's Bumble Bugs and Elephants, considered "perhaps the first modern board book for babies". Brown and Hurd later teamed on the children's book classics The Runaway Bunny and Goodnight Moon, published by Harper. In addition to publishing a number of Brown's books, under her editorship, W. R. Scott published Edith Thacher Hurd's first book, Hurry Hurry, and Esphyr Slobodkina's classic Caps for Sale.-bio via Wikipedia Get full access to The Daily Poem Podcast at dailypoempod.substack.com/subscribe

At last! A new episode with Tim Cotton is here! To wrap up our fifth anniversary celebration, we are proud to launch this new episode with the PR Maven® Podcast guest with the most popular episodes of all time. In this episode, Nancy catches up with Tim Cotton. Since his last episode, Tim has retired from the Bangor Police Department, but still manages their Facebook page, as well as his own. He has also published three books and is working on a fourth. Listen to Nancy and Tim's conversation.   3:05 – Tim explains how his career came about by mistake.   10:08 – Tim talks about the discipline to write.   15:17 –Tim gives an update on the Duck of Justice (DOJ) and how people have come from all over the world to see this dead duck.  22:42 – Tim shares how he has grown his personal brand.   30:48 – Tim describes the themes and messages he keeps throughout his writing.   35:10 – Tim lists some resources that have been helpful to him.     Quote  “When you do put information on there that needs to be disseminated to the public, if you have things bookending it, interesting things that people come to read, they're going to find that. They're not going to know about the cones on Court Street if they don't read it all the time. That was my theory. If they come to read humorous things that really have nothing to do with direct law enforcement, it will bring them here when we need to spread information.” – Tim Cotton      Links:   Washington Post “This may be the only police department in America with a funny Facebook page” https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/inspired-life/wp/2015/12/16/this-may-be-the-only-police-department-in-america-with-a-funny-facebook-page/   Duck of Justice Website: https://duckofjustice.com/  “The Gift of Fear” by Gavin de Becker: https://www.amazon.com/Gift-Fear-Survival-Signals-Violence/dp/0440226198   “Undaunted Courage” by Stephen Ambrose: https://www.amazon.com/Undaunted-Courage-Meriwether-Jefferson-American/dp/0684826976   “Blueberries for Sal” by Robert McCloskey: https://www.amazon.com/Blueberries-Sal-Robert-McCloskey/dp/014050169X   “One Morning in Maine” : https://www.amazon.com/One-Morning-Maine-Robert-McCloskey/dp/0670526274/?_encoding=UTF8&pd_rd_w=O4xNR&content-id=amzn1.sym.579192ca-1482-4409-abe7-9e14f17ac827&pf_rd_p=579192ca-1482-4409-abe7-9e14f17ac827&pf_rd_r=138-8285559-3248618&pd_rd_wg=kDHVM&pd_rd_r=e97a13ac-bc85-4a53-8fda-fc50ed304fdb&ref_=aufs_ap_sc_dsk   “Goodnight Moon” by Margaret Wise Brown: https://www.amazon.com/Goodnight-Moon-Margaret-Wise-Brown/dp/0064430170     Tim's Books:  “The Detective in the Dooryard” https://www.timcottonwrites.com/detective-in-the-dooryard/   “Got Warrants?” https://www.timcottonwrites.com/books/got-warrants-dispatches-from-the-dooryard/  “Dawn in the Dooryard” https://www.timcottonwrites.com/books/dawn-in-the-dooryard-reflections-from-the-jagged-edge-of-america/     Listen to the other episodes in the series:  Encore Episode 36: Lieutenant Tim Cotton, Bangor Police Department  Encore Episode 60: One-year Anniversary Party with Tim Cotton    About the guest:      Tim Cotton is a retired 34-year-cop, writer, former podcaster, author of three books, current social media manager of the Bangor Maine Police Facebook page and his own Facebook page.

We review the book "Away in My Plane" by Margaret Wise Brown.Support the show

This month, August 2023, has two full moons - which means we get to experience the rare "Blue Moon." We're using this opportunity to wax philosophic on the Moon and all it inspires - from Margaret Wise Brown's "Goodnight Moon" to the poetry of Shelley, Stevenson, and Plath. We'll go through the evocative, poetic names for each month's full moon and their origins ("the cold moon," "the harvest moon," "the worm moon" etc.) and end with some incredibly beautiful music a la Claude Debussy's Clair de Lune.    ----- Subscribe to Born of Wonder on Substack https://bornofwonder.substack.com     Support Born of Wonder on Patreon https://www.patreon.com/bornofwonder    www.bornofwonder.com  ------ August Super Blue Moon Guide https://www.space.com/blue-moon-supermoon-august-2023#:~:text=The%20Blue%20Moon%20will%20rise,slightly%20larger%20and%20brighter%20than  The Surprising Ingenuity Behind “Goodnight Moon” https://www.smithsonianmag.com/history/surprising-ingenuity-behind-goodnight-moon-180961923/  "To the Moon" - Percy Shelley https://www.scottishpoetrylibrary.org.uk/poem/to-the-moon/  "The Moon" - Robert Louis Stevenson https://poets.org/poem/moon  "The Moon and the Yew Tree" - Sylvia Plath https://www.blueridgejournal.com/poems/sp-moon.htm  Farmers Almanac List of the Names for the Moon https://www.almanac.com/full-moon-names  "Clair de Lune" - Paul Verlaine  https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clair_de_lune_(poem)  "Clair de Lune" performed by Pascal Roge  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c977QdbTImU

Pourquoi les enfants aiment-ils les histoires ? Est-ce que ça les aide à grandir ? Pourquoi est-ce qu'ils adorent le petit cochon rose que nous, adultes, on ne peut plus voir en peinture ? Et est-ce qu'il est vraiment si nul que ça, ce cochon rose ?Dans cet épisode, Marine Revol rencontre Jennifer Tamas, professeure de littérature à Rutgers University dans le New Jersey.

Kate sez: I want to do a spring book. Betsy sez: Here's a dead bird! With editions created both in 1958 and in 2016, Betsy was lucky to find BOTH editions in her library system. This episode marks our third Margaret Wise Brown book (after Goodnight Moon and Runaway Bunny), our second Remy Charlip (after Fortunately), and our very first Christian Robinson.

My latest guest Jyoti Rajan Gopal is an educator who began writing picture books when she found frustratingly little diverse choices for her kindergarten class. Jyoti taps into her international upbringing and deep experience with young children to create these gems. Having published two beautiful books with loads more in the pipeline, Jyoti shares her publishing journey, starting modeling late in her career and lots more on this fun chat. A must listen, especially for writers and those with young kids in their lives!
