  • Bionic Boy & Book Loving Ghosts
    In this captivating episode of Reading with Your Kids, host Jed Doherty explores the transformative power of children's literature through conversations with two remarkable authors who are reshaping storytelling for young readers. First, award-winning author Lynn Plourde discusses her groundbreaking middle-grade novel, "The Bionic Boy." The book follows Benji, an 11-year-old adopted boy born without hands, who discovers the true meaning of heroism and self-acceptance. Inspired by her 21-year career as a speech therapist, Plourde crafts a compassionate narrative that celebrates children with differences, showing that heroism comes in many forms. The episode then shifts to a delightful conversation with Lindsay Giziki, author of "Bookly, the Book-Loving Ghost" and founder of A Pop Of Indie, an innovative traveling book fair. Giziki shares her passion for bringing diverse, independent books to children, including hosting summer camps where kids create their own picture books. Both authors represent a new wave of children's literature that prioritizes representation, creativity, and empowerment. Giziki's A Pop Of indie book fair introduces children to independent authors and diverse storytelling, while Plourde's novel provides a nuanced exploration of disability and inner strength. The conversation touches on important themes: the evolution of children's literature, the importance of diverse representation, and the power of storytelling to build empathy and understanding. From Benji's journey of self-discovery to Bookly the ghost's love of reading, these authors are creating worlds that inspire, educate, and entertain. Parents and educators will find inspiration in their approaches to storytelling, which emphasize the importance of seeing oneself reflected in literature and the magic of imagination. Whether you're interested in innovative publishing, diverse storytelling, or simply love children's books, this episode offers a heartwarming glimpse into the creative minds shaping young readers' experiences.
