Ep 663 - The Magic School Bus, by Joanna Cole and Bruce Degen
lundi 19 août 2024 • Duration 01:07:04
The Magic School Bus series, beloved of 80s and 90s kids as both a book series and a TV show, depicts a school where every day is a field trip and every field trip is actually a fantastical voyage through time and space. I don't want to think what these permission slips look like.

Ep 571 - Cast in Shadow (The Chronicles of Elantra Book #1), by Michelle Sagara
lundi 23 janvier 2023 • Duration 01:07:31
Super-dense fantasy isn't everyone's cup of tea, and even people who enjoy that kind of tea can sometimes find individual cups of tea that aren't to their taste. Still, any book with lion and bird people in it can't be all bad.

lundi 16 janvier 2023 • Duration 01:06:50
Natty Bumppo is here to guide you through the wilderness of a Canonical White Guy's famous adventure tale. Maybe he can help us track down why it became the template for some less-than-helpful stereotypes based on dubious historical records.

Ep 568 - Harriet the Spy, by Louise Fitzhugh
lundi 9 janvier 2023 • Duration 56:40
Are you a spy? If you are, you have to tell us. Are you a 6th grader? Well then, tell us if you identify with Louise Fitzhugh's Harriet, a girl with a keen but (perhaps overly) righteous eye just trying to get through adolescence.
