MORE 'FUSE-8-N-KATE' POSTS
Thanks to the New York Review of Books we're tackling one of their recent reprints. An 80s title about interior design where the artist was CLEARLY having fun!
It was one of my storytime standbys, back in the days when I used to do storytimes. I relied so heavily on this title, so finally, today, I get to present it to Kate on our podcast. Will it hold up?
Happy Halloween! We're finishing up our creepy season with a book that's more sweet than creep (and we don't mind). It's our first Yuyi Morales picture book on the podcast!
Today we consider a book about, at its core, the difficulty of growing more than a single pumpkin in your pumpkin patch. We talk Jawas, rain barrels, hairless leprechauns, and more.
Today we discuss the man who typified the "controlled Jackson Pollock" look. It's the rare book that was originally intended for Mother's Day and that we're now discussing instead for Halloween.
It's a Halloween book. It's a birthday book. It's an EARLY Jarrett Krosoczka title, and we finally get to to it today on latest podcast.
We dive deep into our first Karla Kuskin book and also our first Marc Simont book. Delightful fare with a very fun take on how horrible ties are to tie.
It seemed only fitting to me that since last week's podcast episode dealt so directly with the beginnings of life, why not focus on the end this time around?
"Three dudes tell you how babies are made in 1968." Do you like papercuts? Do you like ancient children's sex-ed nonfiction for kids? Than have we got a book today for you!
"The critics don't know. The creators don't know. The kids get to see a giant explosion!" We debate the true meaning of this 1968 Caldecott Award winner.
