Andrea Stein is a children's book author and the owner of Moon Dust Press, an independent publisher of magical books for kids based in Austin, Texas. As a mother of 3 and practicing Pagan witch herself, she’s committed to creating resources for kids in earth-based households and changing the narrative around witchcraft in children’s literature. Andrea started writing books about witchcraft for kids in 2019 and has since made it her full time job, creating her own books and publishing other authors and illustrators through Moon Dust Press. She also publishes magical worksheets, and has a kids podcast called Mini Magic. On this episode, Andrea discusses why she decided to focus on making magical children’s books, her own path to Paganism, and how to appropriately introduce witchcraft to kids.Pam also talks about spring beginnings and favorite witchy books from her youth, and answers a listener question about ways to share magic with her young son.***PLEASE NOTE: even though we talk about magical kids content, what you’re about to hear is an adult conversation, and not intended for children. ***Our sponsors for this episode are Rosarium Blends, Snowy Owl Tea, Black Phoenix Alchemy Lab, BetterHelp, and Mithras CandleWe also have brand new print-on-demand merch like Witch Wave shirts, sweatshirts, totes, stickers, and mugs available now here.And if you want more Witch Wave, please consider supporting us on Patreon to get access to bonus Witch Wave Plus episodes, Pam’s monthly online rituals, and more!
