Episode 24: "A Lot" is Two Words and That Is The Hill We Will Die On
from Shelf Esteem · host Trudy Morgan-Cole
We may all be English teachers and a little obsessed with the fact that "a lot" is not one word -- but we also all love books. Dave Walsh and Alison Edwards are, unlike me, on the frontlines of educating junior-high and high-school students, so they have their fingers on the pulse of YA fiction (and some non-fiction), what kids are reading these days, what kids used to read, and what they think about what kids should be reading (which is, spoiler, pretty much what kids want to read!)
