In which we mourn the passing of Beverly Cleary, and suggest something alcoholic one might drink in her honor. We also discuss the (multiple failed) efforts of our husbands to get us to watch "Breaking Bad." Long story short: we're sure it's a great show, but we are NOT. DOING. IT.'
The focus of this episode is Roald Dahl's George's Marvelous Medicine (1981), a very short and very magical book. Next time? Anastasia Krupnik, by Lois Lowry. See you then!

#25: Bubble Gum, Bubble Gum, Bubble Gum (Betty Miles's Maudie and Me and the Dirty Book)
We have been so excited to share this book with you for so long. It's Maudie and Me and the Dirty Book (1980), written by an amazing author named Betty Miles. It touches on SO MANY of the issues that we are facing still, 40 years later, when it comes to children's literature. We hope you will enjoy our discussion and let us know your thoughts ([email protected]).
Other talking points: Below Deck (the OG for now, but Erin is catching up on spin-offs), first grade classroom management, and (of course) actual dirty books. Come join us!

24: Girl, You'll Be A... oh, wait, this is gross. (Natalie Babbitt's Tuck Everlasting)
Holy, cow! We're back! Can you believe it? We've missed you SO MUCH. Don't ask, it was rough.
Here's our latest, a discussion of Tuck Everlasting (1975), written by Natalie Babbitt. You guys think this one's going to be cute because Rory Gilmore was in the movie version... but it's not. We make up for it with a 3.5 minute recap of the entire "Twilight" saga you never knew you needed. We also touch on the topic of old and young (and immortal) horses of all sizes.
Our next episode will be about Maudie and Me and the Dirty Book (1980), a beautiful, fantastic (yet out of print) book by Betty Miles that might just make you wanna get up and vote in an election some time in the near future. Ahem.
See you soon!
