When you think about the various work that goes into making a children’s book, research probably isn’t at the top of your list.
It might not make it on your list at all!
But research is often an essential part of the process. And I can tell you from personal experience that research can be a time-intensive, sometimes overwhelming, but often the most delightful task.
Today on the show, we’re hearing from some incredible authors and illustrators about the research that goes into children’s books. Whether you’re an aspiring author or a curious reader, you’re in for some surprises.
In this episode, you’ll hear:
- Two big reasons why authors do research, whether they’re writing a biography, historical fiction, or even fantasy!
- How every research question can be a doorway, from talking with subject matter experts to primary sources to searching your own heart and mind
- The challenges and opportunities in having too little or too much information available about a person or topic
