It's finally here, it's our Greek myth episode! We kick it all off with Rick Riordan's Percy Jackson and the Lightning Thief, a titan of early 2000s kids' fantasy that we were a smidge too old for at the time that it came out.

What, if anything, can poetry teach our children about the concept of Beauty, and how can it be used to help them better understand and express their feelings?   To answer these and other questions, we turned to award-winning children's author, and poet, Marilyn Singer, a former school teacher who has authored more than 100 books of poetry and fiction, plus many other genres for both children and young adults.  In this episode of the podcast, we get to talk about: poetry's value as a teaching tool Marilyn's work as a teacher, poet and author what poetry teaches children about Beauty using poetry to help instill children with a love of words and language why so many adults seem to lose touch with their imagination and sense of wonder about the world how poetry can help children learn to better express their feelings recommended children's authors, poets and poems This episode's beautiful experience!  We also get to hear Marilyn read from her work, including several Reversos, plus a Shakespeare sonnet on Beauty.

Today we're taking a deep dive into inclusion in children's media. Bob interviews an author/illustrator team about their book, Best Day Ever! It's written by Marilyn Singer and illustrated by Leah Nixon. The book is about a little boy and her dog, and this little boy happens to be in a wheelchair. It's the most indirect disability inclusion story Bob has seen, and it's the kind of representation that is often missing from children's literature. Discover why Singer, author of over 120 children's books, decided to write this book now. Learn more about why she teamed up with wheelchair user and artist Leah Nixon. And you won't want to miss a special reading from the author herself! PLUS Bob asks Singer and Nixon about their best days ever.

But then he scolds her, and suddenly—Worst. Day. Ever. Will puppy be able to make amends and turn their day back around? Join an exuberant, boundary-pushing pup and her exasperated boy in this reassuring story about unconditional love and the challenges of trying to always be on your best behavior.

Then our editors offer their reading recommendations for the week, with books by Marilyn Singer and Leah Nixon, Kalynn Bayron, and Elin Hilderbrand.

A poem a day keeps the sadness at bay.

Marilyn Singer shares WAYS TO SAY I LOVE YOU, illustrated by Alette Straathof. WAYS TO SAY I LOVE YOU is a beautiful, inclusive story about animals courting and finding their mate. And it's about humans doing the same. Do you know that experience of picking up a book unsure of what to expect, only to end up talking and talking and talking to your friend about it? And all the while your friend says “I know, right? I KNOW, right?!” Well, WAYS TO SAY I LOVE YOU happens to be one of those books to me, and my good pal Mel Schuit happens to be one of those friends. Marilyn and I talk as if two long-separated friends with a lifetime of stories with which to catch up. I have known and loved her reverso poems including MIRROR, MIRROR since my very first year in the library. It’s quite possible that this invented poetic form gave rise to me writing poetry myself. All told, this conversation around this particular book feels like one that was a long time in the making and I’m so glad that it all happened just when it did and just as it happened. I very much hope you enjoy this conversation.  You can access even more information about this book and its author by visiting www.matthewcwinner.com/blog.
