The HeroReaders ,

Really good podcast

My 8 yo and I love to listen to this. He rates it 10/10. We listen to this at night time or whenever he needs some time to relax and cool down. Grace Lin is one of our favorite authors and it’s super great listening to her and other great children’s book authors talk in a way that’s relatable and interesting for kids.
