Zibby interviews #1 New York Times bestselling author Brian Selznick about Big Tree, an enthralling and hopeful book of finely detailed pencil drawings about two little seeds on an epic adventure to find a safe place to grow. Brian explains how Steven Spielberg was involved in this project, which was originally a movie screenplay. He also reveals that both seeds’ personalities are based on his own and then discusses his book’s central themes: sibling relationships, climate change, and the bravery to forge your own path. Finally, Brian talks about his wildly successful book, The Invention of Hugo Cabret, his experience growing up as a queer child, and the danger of book bans.
