Customer Reviews
Mr sharp
I love how after interviews people then comes to class then tells us what they talked about how it went.
One of my favorite podcasts
Colby and Travis are the best at what they do.
A must listen to for KidLit readers
As a teacher-librarian The Yarn deepens my love for kidlit. I feel like I learn so much more about the books themselves, their authors and illustrators. Listen to this podcast - @StacyFord77
