In this episode of Reading with Your Kids, we had the pleasure of chatting with two amazing authors who are bringing some seriously awesome stories to life. First up, we caught up with Tim Wright, the mastermind behind the Toby Baxter book series. Toby's latest adventure, "I Heart River Home," is all about this 13-year-old hero learning what it means to love - in all its messy, wonderful forms. From dealing with a school bully to navigating his first crush, Toby's journey is one that's sure to resonate with middle-grade readers and their parents alike. Tim shared how he's weaving important life lessons about forgiveness and empathy into these fantastical tales, and why he believes reading together as a family is so crucial. We also got the scoop on what's in store for Toby in future books - spoiler alert, there's more excitement, laughs, and heart-warming moments to come! Then, we were introduced to the delightful Katy Rose, author of "Miss Prim Goes Wild." This picture book follows a prim and proper older woman who discovers the beauty and wonder of the natural world after an injury forces her to slow down. Katy talked about how this story was inspired by her own adventures exploring nature with her kids, and the importance of encouraging young readers to appreciate the great outdoors. Plus, we got to hear about Katy's other passion project - supporting the foster care system by opening her home to children in need. Talk about a real-life superhero!
