RAR #81: Eavesdropping on the Soul, a conversation with Katherine Paterson
Om avsnittet
✨ Christmas School is here! Get your simple plan for peaceful Christmas season and join us for a 3-week family book club looking at the Nativity with fresh eyes. Learn more! ✨
I think it’s fair to say this is my favorite episode of the podcast we’ve ever done.
You probably know Katherine Paterson as the author of books like Bridge to Terabithia, Jacob Have I Loved and the Great Gilly Hopkins, but if you’re not familiar with her essays about writing for children, you’re about to have your socks knocked off.
The way Ms. Paterson thinks about reading and writing books for kids blows me away. I’m in awe.
In this episode, you’ll hear:
- what she really thinks when she hears that parents/teachers are using books to improve or help their kids
- how to figure out what a book actually “means”
- how reading allows us a unique privilege to ‘eavesdrop on the soul’
